I always enjoyed these when I have a chance. Don't expect rymes, and I do wander off to Haiku's from time to time as well as the occasional Senryu.

The Battle

From their point of view they are righteous
holding back a wayward foe.
Others only watch the battle trying to
understand why it is waged.
From our point of view the battle must be
won for peace and freedoms sake.
Take heed for the winds of change always come
upon the wings of chaos.
Be ready for it or fall to the storm.

Winter Love

Glittering stars shine
Eyes reflect luminous moon
Winters icy breath

Autumn Sunset

Vivid colors sing
Crimson orange cobalt sky
Wind stirs fallen leaves

Lost Love

Shadowed room; despair
Time blurs heart darkened; alone
Ice on window pane

Oooh, I am impressed - you've got the 'twist' in the final line and everything! Those are beautiful.

I may join you in the poetry next term - right now I am up the the eyeballs with short fictipon (that right now needs to be just a few words shorter to meet the word count limit...)

First Snow

Dazzling white silver
Enchantment in the night air
A breath of cold frost

Yellow Rose

Soft fragrant petals
Inspire warm feelings; true friend
Springs soft kiss of dew

Young Love

Passion locks their eyes
Forever glowing hearts; flames
Warm wind blows through trees

Depression

Dark hole never filled
No feeling no pleasure; nothing
Icy chill stabs heart

Fear:

What is it I fear
I sence it when the light fades from the sky
I feel it when I close my eyes.

It is not death
It is not life
What is it I fear

The answer comes to me in my dreams
I fear the loneliness it seems

Poetry

Post by Audrins »

I was a wildland fire fighter for the B.I.A. in 2003 in Utah. I wrote this after a fire that was dubbed "The Moon Water fire" (I think for a lake nearby). I don't really write as much poetry as I used to so I had to dig one of the old ones out. Hope you all enjoy :)

Fire Storm

The Ladder Fuels rose all about
Tip tops reaching for the blue sky
The flames licked the clouds
And the smoke plumes were high

We beat and pulled and ripped the earth
To stop the flames so nigh
And our ashen faces told the truth
We earned our every dime

Thinking on the pleasantries of home
And letting not an hour go by
That we thought not of the baths awaiting
And the thoughts brought forth many a sigh

Yet we trudged forth, not giving up
On Moon Water's steepest sides
And letting not the heat and lightning
Our weakness slowly dies

Hot Spotting through thickest bush
Cold Trailing though thorn
Sweating out the hours ticking
On fire storms we are reborn

2003
