On crumpled papers

Peacock plume

Silent eyes staring from peacock plume
Replaced cherry twigs in the vase
Spring breeze is ruffling trees in bloom
Colors are fading in a haze
Of
A violin solo.
Something is leaking in my room
Causing a severe lack of space
Filling its corners with furtive gloom
Spring is too fierce, so out of place!
A chess-master is playing
Solo.

Calendar
Crystal clear was my winter dream
Although I did not deem it wise
Foolishness boldly ruled supreme
In vain came all your good advice

Bewitching fragrance spring brought in
Quite the same river, stepped in twice
A Case of you became my hymn
That and Tomorrow never dies

Summer came from the open sky
I hit the road and gave up sighs
There was no response, no reply
For distance there is no disguise

Autumn took on a reddish coat
Then I found myself on a run
Toward new aims, quite far remote
And not reaching a single one

Soon calendar will take us back
Where we were just a year ago
I can't help asking what the heck
Why do I have to let it go?

Zima

Studený podzim

Náhlý je nástup Vivaldiho zimy,
ostrý tón houslí, ruce stařenčiny
chvějí se jako můj dech mrazem,
v němž stojím sama a polohlasem
si šeptám své sny denní.

Na Prahu padá stín a šero,
období ročních dávno není čtvero.
Když padá listí, vím, čas zbývá,
ale co potom, co já zimomřivá?
Kdo chladnou úzkost v radost změní?

Prime

Sky

Prime

Gait that I look for in a crowd
Neither too quiet, nor too loud
Unexpectedly unexpected
Standing out

Express flight on the heaven's line
Pretty sure it goes to cloud nine
Cannot be outdone
Could be mine?

Redefines terms of space and time
Music plays, words come and rhyme
I'm absurd
And he is prime
