Lovely words, yet not quite a Haiku...so I'll try to work with it....
Maybe I am wrong
It has happened once or twice
who is keeping count?
Who is keeping count
Of the stars and grains of sand?
One by one by one.
One by one by one
The children show us the way
We need reminding.
We need reminding
to eat our vegetables
please and thank you too!
Please, and thank you, too
Are very often solely missed
We need more manners
We need more manners
To make a better world
respect anyone
respect anyone
who talks to you with kindness
listen intently.
Listen intently.
The sound you hear is my love,
drifting toward you.
<you're right, Jameson, I must have been sound asleep when I wrote that one>
Drifting toward you, the
floating ice cream lid moves close
to your wading feet.
To your wading feet
The ocean gives a caress
While sand gives soft hugs
While sand gives soft hugs
Seawater provides the bath.
Warm sun, my blanket.
Warm sun, my blanket
Burn my long exposed skin
While mind goes wild
While my mind goes wild
there is no chaos outside
only in my soul
Only in my soul
will you find splintering ice
shards raining down low.
Shards raining down low,
Lightning bolts scarify the
Skies. Armageddon.
Skies Armageddon
Approches in angry clouds
Evil rains the earth
Evil rains the earth
as dark extends it's shadow
over mourning skies
Over mourning skies
The sun hides in the heavens
Peace will come again
Peace will come again.
The kitchen will be tidy.
I can have it all.
I can have it all
See tides at the shore
I want no more
