Manonton Dalan Poems

warm grain of sweat rolls
over her innocent face
a bare iron grille window
looking on her old chair
...

i know you're watching crystal ball
with eyes close clinching your fist
pictures coming out of you, so clear
you miss me but for a moment unsure
...

i see wings scattered on grass
flesh is gone slowly eaten by ants
sad fate for once gliding creature
up above trees; wilderness treasure
...

so many words i have written
very few of them i have spoken
i love silence inside my room
so small but still call my home
...

i can hear falling rain
but i can't see where
where it's coming
i can see water flowing
...

lone eagle on bridge overlooking lake
spread her majestic wings to wind breeze
i watch her in awe; staring at me; i'm bigger
with a quick leap floated in air; endless
...

sails compete for space
like dancing rose petals
so many colors beautiful
filling up wide harbor
...

when i see trees lining up
i am home; aloft at that
so green after weeks of rain
grass as well; surrounding
...

unseen hand writes with fire
up in darkness of swollen sky
rolling empty drums of summer
crashing ice from molten glacier
...

i was walking on grass
i felt ground mash under
it tickled my toes, i fear
i would slide or be buried
...
