***
Sometimes I feel like little drop
That’s longing for a grain -
I try to pour new life in it
But efforts are in vain.
furtherSometimes I feel like butterfly
That’s flying to a light -
I try to touch its gentle warmth
But it goes out in night.
Sometimes I feel like tumbleweed
That rolls through desert land -
I try to find a place to stay
But desert has no end.
Sometimes I feel like gust of wind
Without thought and aim -
Whatever cross I on the way
For me is just a game.
***
I am unique as snowflake,
No other is alike.
My life is long but time is short
Before the earth I strike.
There billions others still unique
With lives as long as mine.
We lie together in the cold
And something white combine.
Our life is long but time is short
Until we falling start.
And one can see us still alive
But not to tell apart.
***
Your perfect face is always calm,
Your voice you never raise.
The green of eyes that makes me feel
Like child in a maze.
Your clothes are elegant and neat,
Your movements smooth and fine,
And in the curve of gentle lips
I something sense divine.
I’ve never seen you cry or laugh,
Or mad, or glad, or blue…
So hard to reach your closed heart –
Are really human you?
***
I’m a lake among the mountains,
Cool and deep, and crystal clear.
There’s no monsters dwell inside me –
You can drink without fear.
If you look into my water,
You won’t find reflection there –
At the bottom little fishes
To and fro without care.
Stay awhile and rest a little –
I don’t mind your presence here.
I may even never notice
Your existence somewhere near.
***
I will cover you with silence
And comfort with gentle touch.
Sweep away the pain and sorrow -
Doesn’t matter how much.
I will listen to your whisper,
I will dry your falling tears,
Seal your doubt, ease your worries,
Cast away your hidden fears.
Like a vial without a bottom
I’ll accept you till the end…
And we know whatever happens,
You’ll be there for me, my friend.
***
“Nowhere…” No matter how hard
And long you try to search,
In closed room or open space,
With or without torch.
“Now, where?..” You ask yourself confused
And hope the answer find,
While crowd of myriad ideas
Cross your bewildered mind.
“Now, here…” is one of them in row
That passes in а blink,
And if you fast enough to catch,
There’s more than you can think.
***
You are a little lizard
That’s sliding through the grass.
I’m never able to catch up
When you in hurry pass.
You are so deadly cautious
And always stay alert,
So I am guessing how much
You’re scared of being hurt.
You want to leave? Then do so -
I’ll keep on sitting calm.
But in a case you change your mind -
I’ll just stretch out my palm.
***
I’m in a shell? No way, flat open -
Just take a closer look and see.
Why do you say it’s hard to solve me?
It isn’t me who tries to flee.
You say you cannot trace my actions?
You fail to analyse my soul?
Or maybe it’s my smile that throws you
Away from your so fogish goal?
I’m sorry, but regrets you hope for
You may as well forever wait.
I’m in a shell? Then let me be so.
It’s anyway for you too late.
***
I raise my hands and stand as frozen
To feel the water from the sky.
My legs are roots, my arms are branches,
I bathe myself in nature’s cry.
Within me seasons running wild,
I let them follow unrestrained.
No inner fight, no grief, no sorrow -
It’s all in past already paid.
I take a breath of subtle moonlight
And then exhale thick morning mist.
The time has stopped. The time continues.
Let’s see what next is on my list…
***
In my goblet wine and water,
Merry faces all around.
Day before there was a slaughter
And with blood still squelches ground.
In the grate roars hungry fire,
Drunken shadows hop and skip.
I oblivion desire
And no promises to keep.
Will another bloody battle
Fresh my throat with a gulp?
Hush, reflections… Lauder, slogans!
Time to go - bottoms up!
