A “nonet” for #TankaTuesday

#nonet #poetry #micropoetry
Theme is Mother.

I lived with grandma then, but you came
To get me and we ate ice cream
In a diner booth. It was
Your birthday. Twenty years
old. I begged for nuts
And a cherry
On the top.
You said
Yes.

Once upon a young happier time
When cities were mere villages
And the land had far more trees
We lived in harmony
With all of nature
Free from the fear
And control
Of rich
Fools

Shards

I ran out of words, not out of tears
though it is good to know, because
it means I have got a heart
that can break, and still love
with each single shard
and love always
heals, even
broken
hearts

The schizophrenic queer

The pride parade goes on without me.
My crazy brain cannot attend.
Hallucinations spiral.
The schizophrenic queer.
Pride is a protest.
But no access.
Do I fit.
Crazy.
Pride.

How many more wars does this world need,
with crimes against humanity,
before we all shout, “Enough!”?
If tomorrow we all
just woke up and chose
love over fear,
could we then
save our
world?

I don’t often cry: but when I do,
It is a rushing waterfall.
Today, I hug little me
Who was told, “You’re too much!”
For expressing tears.
And I whisper:
“It’s okay
To be
Soft.”

Sunlit stone shimmers in the breeze,
Flickers of scales, gleaming, tease,
Silent slink, slow delight,
Shuffle through sage,
Tail twists time,
Heat hums,
Then blink,
Gone,
#Lizard.

I walk alone through an old tunnel,
With barely a glimmer of light
Shining from my rusty torch,
But I know I’ll make it -
Until then, I will
Cry, “The horrors
Persist, but
So do
I!”

Something stirs beneath the skin of knowing,
unsure if it should rise or fade.
Meaning trembles on the edge,
a thought that fears its form.
Silence flickers once,
almost speaking,
almost seen,
almost,
gone.

Blue sky with a little white cloud in the lower third of the square picture. Written over it in white letters:

CLOUDS

No need to reach for stars so famous
I rather gently float like clouds
Brushing sky's blue soothingly
Until silver moon rise
Not better angels
But tangible
Like the breeze
Kisses
Clouds
Like
Clouds shroud
The snow moon
Diligently
Warming it till Spring
Primordial this love
Is never and forever, 
Is everything and also naught
No need to reach for stars so famous

Not all birds fly south for the winter
Some of them choose to stay behind
And so they learn to adapt
In the harshest weather
In such unique ways
That they persist
From winter
Until
Spring

then decreases in every line
I want it to look slanted

oops now it's at

Sometimes I stop to think and wonder
If we’re all just tiny white stars
Spread out across the night sky
Who can see all other
Stars shining brightly
Except our own
Yet we do
In fact
Shine

If I had a thousand and one lives
To spend with a single person,
I would spend it all with you
And yet still feel that it’s
Simply not enough
Time to love you
Completely
As you
Are.

Magpie Ideas

I magpie ideas, steal from others
to feather my creative nest
pooling, stitching together,
shiny and something new.
Amalgamation
of stolen thoughts
smushed, combined,
a false
gold.

GUARDIAN

The road is shrouded, the view obscured
The world no longer seems the same
Do I let myself get lost
Will I give way to paths
Unseen, yet present
Transitory
Yet profound
I walk
On

CAPRICCIO

I stand alone amidst fading green
Pick up a walnut from the ground
When I remember Khoomei
And horse-shaped fiddleheads
A wayside caprice
Watercoloured

THE NET

Getting caught in a net might be seen
As an eventuality
Of irksome entanglement
But it can also mean
Potential safety
The question is
Does it come
At a

RAIN'S REIN

Leaves descending in Monsoon-like rains
Bellwether of the coming frost
Like salmon I walk upstream
And smile brightly as I
Wave the geese farewell
A rehearsal
For coming
Winter
Days

ALIGNED

Perspective matters, a look outside
Never afraid to shine a light
Well, yes, but there's courage, too
Always at an angle
And never in line
Untamed and wild
Yet aligned
Heart, soul
Mind

TAKING STOCK

As days grow darker, and winds grow cold
And fallen leaves get swamped away
I take stock of my harvest
A horse tail in Spring's breeze
A sweet Summer morn
Autumn's colours
Precious notes
In life's
Song

Synthesis of Reds and Yellows
Occured in celebration
Of the fall's arrival
When fires are lit
In cosy homes
Lotus sits

Silhouettes of bare trees at dusk. The colours are washed out, except orange hues behind the trees towards the bottom. Written in white letters in an open part of gray sky:

Another week passed and I stood like
Deer in the headlight, immobile
Until pouring rain gave rein
To my tears, and the wind
Whistled clarity
Into my head
Feet on grass
Next dusk
