*
long puddles
of flat affect
alongside the raging
of sea oats
about this direction
*

if time could heal
what love had undone
the sea
would have forgotten
the pull of the moon

supposedly time
can heal if you wait it out
if you have the time
the scars won’t be forgotten
jutting just a bit too proud

autumn songs
in undertones
learning the words
that heal
a dead man's child

inspired by Rumi's reflections on "A MAN AND A WOMAN ARGUING"
…
"You were a healthy vine.
Now you're a rotten fruit.
You ought to be growing sweeter and sweeter,
but you've gone bad."

black vine
…
once a healthy vine
nothing there, nothing growing
become a rotten fruit

rip it out, root and branch
bring falling rain to cleanse again

I flinch
at the whistling sound
of the harmattan breeze

how do I trust
this fleeting season

#TankaThursday trust
#Haikufeels flinch

I place my trust
in a thousand people
flying east
my poem arrives
with the sunset

#TankaThursday 8 Octobet 2026

life spawns here in clay
stretched between rootings & stars
trust is a yearning
through instinct to intellect
melding of darkness & light

#TankaThursday

Over the morning
It caught hold on monday
A new old monster
Though all was familiar
It had a very new twist

coin face
lost in the clouds
threat of snow
a confessional voice
says “trust the toss”

autumn sky
bright blue
with fluffy clouds
I trust you will still
be here tomorrow

#tanka #TankaThursday

kind colours
of autumn's glow
hues of warmth
and trust
and letting go

#TankaThursday trust

built like one of David's stones
this pumpkin with a handle
you can trust
being strong
where it was broken
