Shangri La, Volume 8. Beyond Flawed Paws

FREE PDF COPY >>> Links Below

Hello, dear readers and followers, as you might know, I stopped producing my “Tullawalla Booklets” at # 31, because that was the house number of our family’s Tullawalla Homestead.
But the booklet formats are a superb way for me to catalogue the vast number of poems I produce and as the saying goes “I Am Turning Another Page”. Here I have begun a new series of poem booklets, called “Shangri La” which is the name of my little Villa, and is my piece of “earthly paradise, a retreat from the pressures of modern civilization”.
Incredibly, I now have “1711” Poems filed in these booklet formats!!
(on my bookshelf I have “The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson, which contains 1775 poems … when I first started writing poems, I never envisaged that I would produce so many poems … )

Beyond Flawed Paws
 
 
We are flying north before winter 
I am on the edge of the flock 
The outside feather of the throng  
Away from the main group.  
But close enough 
To sense that I belong

Even with my tired and aging wings 
The congregation allows me to tag along 
And they caringly bunch together 
Sheltering me when the wind is strong

We are a humble and united colony  
Paternally migrating in perfect harmony 
As part of nature’s cycle of eternity 

We soar above the flawed paws
Of the world’s sparring humanity 
And beyond those sharp claws
Of their tragic and panicky community

Grey Clouds Have Rainbows


The night is not always dark

You know

The moon has a bright side

The other side hides

in the Sun’s shadow


An icy pond’s reflection

Has the wrong image

Of whom was right

And grey clouds have rainbows

Words Are Free


 “Dear Reader, beware. You think you’re reading my poems, but in truth, they are reading you. My words are mirrors and windows. Your reaction is merely a reflection of your own nature and experiences.” — John Mark Green



A Ten-Word Poem (Words Are Free)

A bewitched heart 

Savagely eaten by vultures 

Cannot be restitched
