sun dips
beyond conception
listen
gnats buzz moving in circles
ducks paddle with the current
by the riverside
longing for meaning
seagull echoes

Tournesol is still tilling the soil dans un jardin; slowly planting a seed here and there, hoping to see poetry blossom...a labour of love. This blog will host short form poetry such as Haiku, Tanka, Tilus, Lanturne, Shadorma, Senryû...
Very powerful - those first three lines had me reall thinking - beyond conception - wonderful line. the tiny gnat's circular movements, too, takingus back to the sun again, really clever, Beautiful ending.
ReplyDeleteThank you...I sat on it for hours until I got the second line to match what I thought. Times I wish I had a better vocabularly or could draw.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fine power post Cher ... each stanza is a pearl.
