Coolness Of Morning

Coolness of morning

Dew envelops everything

Rain clouds have stormed off

Clouds Hang Low And Dark

Clouds hang low and dark

Masking our sacred mountains

Native spirits play

Cold Salt Spray Rains Down

Cold salt spray rains down
Winds like daggers frost the soul
Of hearty sailors
Death may lie on the next swell
On their way to calm waters
Such is their lover
Both cruel and kind on a whim
With no emotion
She is as she’s always been
Nature’s passionate abyss

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Clouds Layered, Thick, Dark (Tanka)

Clouds layered thick, dark

Framing nature’s ragged face

She weeps for the sun

They are but star-crossed lovers

Counting down to reunion

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

 

Undulating Storms (Tanka)

Undulating storms

Breathe life into flaccid land

Lifeblood is transfused

Washing clean the earth from sky

Returning to whence it came

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

 

Sky Clears, Brilliant Blue (Haiku)

Sky clears, brilliant blue

No more violent storms loom

It’s raining sunshine

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

 

Sallow Skies Erupt (Haiku)

Sallow skies erupt

Flashes dance in the heavens

Scorching the desert


~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Mushroom Cloud (Haiku)

Mushroom cloud of grey

Taking heavens center stage

~~ A storm approaches

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

 

Skeptics Still Persist (Tanka)

Skeptics still persist

Liberal media blamed

Burdening business

Global warming is not real

Tell that to those who suffer
