POEM-AGAIN

When the winds blow, the cedar falls-
When the cedar falls the world breaks-
When the world breaks
The winds blow,
And all begins again.

POEM-Death feeds the living.

Circling, the falcon seeks prey
Eyes fixed on movement in grass and hedge,
It swoops, talons raised-
Its raptor beak drenched in blood.
A screech ascends piercing the sky-
Death feeds the living.

Cloud covers sun-
its rays diluted.
Critics cover talent.

Once there is darkness, critics
are the brightest light.

POEM-Why?

Falling rain courses through the sky-
azure teardrops
with agonised plops
soothe the women as they wander by.

In theur thoughts remains an eternal: 'Why?'

YIN-poem

While the sun shines, the flowers grow-
the trees become wise
age is infected with youth. At night, worship becomes fundemental.

Christian Orthodox and Putin

According to the new's agencies, the Orthodox Church in Russia has allied itself with Putin and the FSB, successors of the KGB, to crush liberal values in Russia. Hardly surprising that leaders of a Christian Church,, a religion long in the forefront of tolerance and acceptance, should combine with a thuggish politician responsible for murder and war. Church leaders of all denominations have habitually joined hands with right wing politicians, propagating belief not genuine values, religion-as-control denuded of thought and intelligence.

poem-yin

The bridge collapsed after the storm
tumbling into the raging river-
I watched in tears. My water adding to the deluge.
