CLASH OF THE SYMBOLS
Along nature park,
Ladybug roams Petunia;
Swallow perched on branch.
AMBIENCE
Courtyard stroll displays,
Tulips tucked as Jasmine bloom;
Cloud covers full moon.
KING’S VICTORY
Amidst forest road,
Cheetah concedes Lion’s lunge;
Carcass near tree stump.
WHAT LIES AHEAD
Midday at seaside,
Sail of ship roughened by waves;
Lightning strikes land.
PUREST MORNING
Gardenias petals;
Hold dewdrops moisture and heat –
Summer bees invade.
CIRCLE OF LIFE
Field of Daffodils;
Leaves wither on moth pupa –
Cardinal flies by.
