Dreams
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

Fire and Ice
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Spring Haiku
Haiku
Lovely buttercups
Sway in the spring breeze
For a lamb...fodder
Fixed glare of sun
On besieged whitewashed wall
I can see forever
Noisy sparrows sit
In my rhododendron shrub
A breeze dries my shirts
Ewe refused her lamb
Shepherd gave it to his wife
Now it is a pet

Summer Day
Shall I compare you to a summer day?
With clear sky and sun light shine on your face.
And the smell of flower and grass all over the place.
Shall I compare you to a summer day?
With the heat of May that I always hate.
And with the rain hurry come then fade.
Shall I compare you to a summer day?
