HAIKU: Summer Blossom

Summer Blossom.





 My seclusion, my prison, it is my winter.
 Not my joy, not my summer.
 With a gentle nod, spring is fleeting.
 Old love is fading and its vanishing gazes are not for me.
 Looking for love and needing a new love, where may I find thee
 A new long summer is at the doorstep of my bed.
She is my fresh blossom, before a dark winter.


God bless you


May all be well with thee

Sarasota FL

Sarasota FL This land of the first people, the native Indians, was called Sarasota. Today the city dwellers call it “Paradise.” It is a cruel joke flaunted by the city of wannabes  and social climbers, who clambering to get their mug shots, in glossy magazines. With all the greed, avarice and under handed deals in this town, it is the devils playground, and many a souls depart, as the corner pronounces death by misadventure. The origins of this sweet, innocent town called Sarasota are unknown and shrouded in the fog of the bayou backwaters. Historians think the word Sarasota is part of an American Indian language, which meant Point of rocks. It sounds dangerous, if you are on a ship or on shore. Another old legend suggests that Sarasota means “Place of the dance.” I wonder who all were dancing at this party, I wasn’t there. On the map of 1763 this land mass was called “ZARAZOTE. “ The name itself sounds even more dark, threatening, and very ominous. It could be anythin...

MANEATERS

MANEATERS The  villagers trembled, as death walked with four paws under the forest canopy, it’s the season of death, and they have heard his voice. When the king of the carnivore walks fearlessly in the dark and in the daylight, it is color blind he seeks mostly humans as he gets old and this kind is easy to catch . Sometimes the hunter chases the prey unlike any other; it’s the time of the maneater. Many a time the prey becomes the hunter, it’s a nightly game that is played out, and the tiger uses all his instincts of million years while the hunter uses his five senses. Only the gun and your heartbeat are your companions. There are no shadows in the pond, no birds fly the very blue, and the whole forest watches the hunter and the prey play their role only the end is bloody. The forest has become a very foreboding place, and the bear has gone to sleep. Only the owl is the last guardian of wisdom. In the teepees of the first people, they dream of forest, lakes, no boundaries, and...
