we need to follow
the footsteps
already there…
fresh snow this spring we need
to clean from the Apple
tree we need to Watch before we need to go again… We need a New house every season

cherry season –
her nails
more red
cathedral walls
giving way to
the sunlight…
framing
a warm June afternoon
after a strong rain
with thunderstorm…
no more dust left
not even the fluff
from dandelions
next to the
crumbling walls…
from last year
no more raindrops
lying down
before my
footsteps
surface wind
over the lake
no willows
to bend over
before my
apprentice wizard
craft…
nature can also
do magic
at Hogwarts
sailing
over the moon…
the moon trembles
under his oars…
their boat
creates
a moon eclipse
before
the waterlily leaves…
fishing…
troubling
the moon…
after the swim
of a few fishes
creating an eclipse
a red-eared slider…
troubling the fishing rod
only the wind…
the fisherman wakes up
from dreamy reflections
after hours
of watching
a blooming magnolia…
after
good morning
wishes
soft moonlight
I use
no watercolours
this time…
weaving
a multicoloured
group
African fish
Hello. Thank you very much for accepting me to join the Poetry Marathon! It is my first participation in such a challenge! I hope this challenge to help me gain more courage and stimulate me into being more creative! One poem per hour is a lot! I think it’s a great way to get someone started to writing poetry. I hope to make some good poems during the day.
I did study literature during my school and university days, yet I believe it was high time I started getting more creative and wrote my own poems.
One step I took into this direction was when I started writing haiku in August 2014.
I hope I get to know the other members as well as their creations during this challenge. Reading the others’ work and learning from them is as important as creating your own.
I am from Romania. I was born there in 1983. I graduated from the University of Bucharest where I studied English and French and now I am an English teacher at the Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest.
With so much technology that we can use nowadays it is great we can join such challenges and groups where we can practice our creativity.
Thank you once again and good luck to all poets!
