Withering suns...



As the night just 
got stuck onto you 
I try harder 
to pluck the day
out of the moon-tree. 
It is then a thousand suns 
wither like autumn leaves 
only to make you smile 
which in turn brings 
my last boat. 
I now start sailing 
to the banks 
of the spring.

Spillover

It takes exactly the same time
as drinking a cup of tea
to write a poem

As one takes a sip
the words fall into place
one after another

And then a poem
just sits there
as an empty cup
