To Thou

Bellowing clouds adrift
Lazily cross the sky
And with so much ado
Display before my eyes

With the air so fresh
Sunlight casts so warm
Thoughts begin to form
Against my white blue mind

In the remote horizon
Growing black through time
Amid a distant rumble
Shadows spread across the sky

Flashing now with light
Resounding with such a fright
Thoughts begin to wonder
Why you across my mind

Now the blue is gone
The clouds no longer white
Thoughts begin to marvel
At your fresh bright light

Reap and Sow

So how come we to times as these
Beseech with lordly frown
Stabled to a wonders way
Those that bore the crown

Sunlight spreads across the sky
With summers days so few
We sport about on endless ways
With our crown so new

Though the summer has its way
We spend our time anew
For what we sought we seldom we see
Is a crown so true

We find the crown we hold
Glimmers bright and gay
Yet for us this seeming day
Our deeds will have their say

Missing you

Sitting sill in silence
Beneath a moon glow beam
Shading the day with darkness
Alone within my dream

Hence, the moon glow shines
Filling the night with sight
I see your image waver
Within the moon glow bright

Shadows still haunt me
Playing upon my mind
As distant cloudy reminders
That I am alone again this night

Therefore, the morning breaks
Dismissing what was then
As a silent minder
Of what we were for then

Qinglan

To me there is no light
Shining as brilliantly as your eyes
Yet your cheeks of rose
Painted with colors so gay
Play false those fields of green
For in a life so gay
Only your dazzle
Illuminations my day

Happy Valentine’s Day
My darling
