Saiom Shriver Poems

Receives rare light from the sun
The other side of the moon...
but she is awash in starlight
and glowblessed by rays of Neptune.
...

At the top of the world
as they did dine
they died without
an anodyne.

A camel in an entourage...
hard for him is camouflage.
a most faithful mammal is the camel.
After serving masters all his life..

No longer will
the chef
the scallops scalp.
No longer will

When a whippoorwill
alights in a willow
is he a
whippoorwillow?
...

How is it that we distil
beauty from the pain that spills
from broken hearts when night is still
and trills the song of whippoorwill

To you at birth each animal bequeathed
His own special gift in ribbons wreathed.
The cat delivered his independence.
The eagle her detached ascendance.
...

Herald heard the hark
After many many ages
herald heard his hark.
Afer eons his own song
...

Intense are fall's hues
Soft are spring's pastels.
Autumn's orange is specific
Spring'ssweet pinks are pacific.
...

WINDBROOM

More nonviolent than
a Buddhist monk's
