Words
azure blue
the chance to paint words
across the sky

Silhouettes
moonlit night
I hear your footsteps
behind my window
but all I see
is your silhouette
merging into another

Today is tanka day at Rajani’s. Somehow, I’ve never been good with the tanka. 🙂 So this is just a small poem.
Fatal Kiss
a smile
like the sun
peeks through slits of darkness
scented rays hug me
in a kiss of death

Join the party at Rajani’s with your own micro poem in the comments section or using Mister Linky. There are no rules – whatever the muse whispers!
Trying my hands at the quadrille (44 word poem. Word! 🙂 )
Stale Death
they say love is blind
and perhaps so
for how could I have failed
to glimpse the darkness
beneath your light
smooth velvet is the night
that hides sinister cravings and urges
I shudder at your perfumed breath
a musky odour of stale death

Dandelion Boom
dandelion bloom
I pretend to inhale
your musk
yellow now
and then fading
