sweetness

She seeks
a hand
that will carry her
and feed her
the fruits of love's sweetness

-

Sweetness
as the apple
breaks free from stone
to juiciness
by the strength of a bite

-

Perhaps
we can only truly taste
while we love
That even the bitterest coffee
would taste of sweetness

-

Sunlight
through the window
The smell of
mother's baked fairy cupcakes
Sweetness

insomniac

Hands trembling

eyes weary

she struggles

to close her mind

but fails

-

She wished

somebody had

sung her a lullaby

or rocked her crib

anything

that would've enchanted her

to peaceful night's sleep

papercraft

She shootes paper airplanes
into the night sky
they go far
somewhere beyond her sight
a world she can only imagine

-

She gently places
paper sailboats
by the midnight shore
one by one
setting them free

a cherub's doing

She hid
behind a rosebush
peeking at a boy
A playful cherub
released its arrow
The boy spotted her
butterflies in his stomach

do you?

I always wonder
do you wait for me?
How do I look to you?
How does your imagination
project me?

a projection

You are
a projection
of my imagination
and yet
you're true

the rescue

He handed her
the silk
he had rescued
from the witch's lair
She was ever grateful

summer festival

She
in her yukata
spots her favorite ninja awaiting her
How beautiful summer is going to be
spent together

the playful mind

"I step into
a dimension
light years away
a lucid fantasy designed
by simply a playful mind."
