26. Midst shouts and slams
My beloved despot rages
The clock ticks and tocks
27. A cold heart's hollow
Echoes laments of past loves
I miss your cold gaze
28. Soft light pierces through
The morning’s window pane
Your yawn woke me up
29. Colored prints of you
Arrayed on doilied cover
Sonic boom explodes
30. I saw her today,
Aloof but with a coy smile
Now my cellphone rings
31. Dustin and David,
Mischievous kids both ten
Oops! A Ming vase breaks
32. Funereal fragrance wafts,
Midst earnest sobs and clasped hands
Snuffed candle falls
33. Old eyes squint in wait,
Faint sounds make feeble ears stand
Welcome youthful yells
34. As she walked past me
Stolen gaze I saw her make
Sunday I’ll be back
35. There you are li’l girl
Swathed in a field of yellow
Bees told me you’re here
36. Speak up old tree
She was here with him last night
Don't just shake your leaves
37. Embrace me hotly
Leave the cold and wet behind
Hang your love to dry
38. Ill wind blowing wild
Smashing and slashing at will
Crack! a tree trunk breaks
39. Nature's ire unleashed
Bullying all in its path
Crashing waters roar
40. The roar and fury
Of crashing, rumbling waters
Silenced by a sob
41. Sun sets on Jasmine
Scented twilight stirs my soul
Where has my love gone?
42. High atop a hill
The world looks bright and cheerful
Worms creep up to see
43. Amidst the rubble
Wasted ruins of the storm
New life emerges
44. Nature’s vanity
Musing its own reflection
Upon a clear tarn
45. Sunbeams light her path
Suddenly morning has come
Emerged from a dream
46. Shrilling buzz like drills
Cicada’s plaint close the day
Light sinks with the sun
47. Suntanned revelers
Frolic in raucous delight
Jesus impaled sweats
48. Memories are streams Of glorious times, sad failures Flowing out from time
49. Icons tumbling spin,
Flashing light and ringing bells
Sadly I drove home
50. Struggling to hold on Wiry roots cling tight to life Please don’t axe that tree
