A Fallen Leaf

A light leaf spots an anxious face

Falling dearly near an empty space

Igniting dreams and eager frustrations

Leaving mysteries in desperation

Touch

And a smile was drawn

Hush

And a sweet tune was dwelled on

An artful shadow drove over like a gray cloud in winter

Then a hand held it tightly and whispered 

"I am going to keep you regardless the bitter and the better"

Running in the field of fear

Gushing tear after tear

Softer than silence, stiller than still air

Floating up and down like snowfall, tireless, fair

Too tight to bare 

It cracked and the face was in despair 

Fragile and the yellowing leaves were held in pieces 

A vibrant sound echoed and releases

"In every change, in every falling leaf, there is some pain, some beauty to embrace

No trace to efface 

I shall be scattered but not defeated 

Cause life starts all over again to arrest the dreamer, wanderer, and heartbroken on their aimless ways no matter what the season."

The Awakening Sunflower

Sunflowers stood upon the edge 
Awaken and ready to pledge
Sunlight set things to ablaze 
Revealing the darkness that’s hidden from your face

Golden shadows beamed and glowed
Crossing miles and railroads
Their bright presence had unloaded
Above all the weeds and roses, they had spoken 

Words of wisdom to rejoice
Find a purpose and dig up the soil
Raise your words not your voice 
Quench your thirst as rain grows sunflowers not by choice 

Each night, war of drums beats
They’d skip and repeat
Sunflowers are awaken from their deep sleep
To elevate your hopes and dreams

They’re ready to spread seeds of happiness 
To wipe your sorrows and sadness 
Because you, “dearest highness”
Should take a cause and dive  in
Break some doors and walk like a champion
