Reeling from turmoil
A whirlwind of a day
I’m dazed and confused
So much in so little time
Its time to relax and breathe.

Patter Of Fall Rain (Tanka)
Patter of fall rain
Hypnotic in its rhythm
Lulling me to sleep
Warm and dry in my slumber
My soul is truly at peace
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
What’s My Lineage (Tanka)
What’s my lineage
Whose blood courses through my veins
It’s not important
In the end I am human
And that is all that matters
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
A Story Calls Me (Tanka)
A story calls me
Begging to be written down
Fragments of a tale
Perhaps one day it will meld
Into a true masterpiece

Lovely Bungalow (Tanka)
Lovely bungalow
Left in ruin–overgrown
Mark of foreclosure
Farewell American dream
It was nice while you lasted
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Day Mourns Not The Night (Tanka)
Day mourns not the night
Natural is its passing
Into mystery
As man returns to spirit
So too is his fate unknown
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Where Have My Dreams Gone (Tanka)
Where have my dreams gone
My mind a dark theatre
I wake to nothing
No recollection of sleep
Only a nocturnal void
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Synergy Of Souls (Tanka)
Synergy of souls
Joined in spiritual quest
For life after death
Since the beginning of time
We have been seeking Heaven
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Thank You Blessed Life
Thank you blessed life
Though full of tribulation
I am most happy
Yes, there is much I could have
But I’m in want of nothing
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
The Cool Morning Air (Tanka)
The cool morning air
Dew clinging to window panes
How quickly things changed
Now that fall is upon us
First snow can’t be far behind
