Lips on half drunk
Glass of water;
Few dust motes
Shed from
Proceeding shoes;
And warmth
Of your departing hand
On mine;
Each telling
Its own
Tale
Untold

Your Feet
Traces of your feet
On the pavement
Became my way to destination
A stranger few years back
Is now my pillar of support
And my biggest fascination
My first thought of you every morning
And last thought of you in night
Gives me moments of elation
I don’t fear anymore
I have you to depend upon
And guide me with ideal contemplation

Understanding
It turns everything into new
It covers us like a soft, warm mantle
Giving everything we lacked;
In hope to reach the unattainable
We move ahead to it with hesitant steps;
Missing enthusiasm returns
And we start behaving like a stubborn kid
No longer, we feel ashamed of ourselves
Even when we are arguing stupid
Love’s omnipresence makes us happy
And innocently our palms cups our own face
Day goes imagining talks, cuddles
Kisses, intimacy and embrace
We shed our inhibitions
Among laughs, jokes and touch
Listening just heart
We start losing ourselves so much
Pigeons of thinking start flying high
Someone sets them free in sky
Coins are scattered around penny bank
Someone dragged them out from the tank
Water is spilling from earthy pot
Someone jerked, to take out the collected lot
We know this won’t leave us with hurt
And will make us live with better worth

Moon Appears
Faintly
Amidst stars
Among grey clouds
Increasing gradually
With progressive night
telling its tale about
Its steady progress
Of its wispy appearance
From nothingness
To the brightest one

Bożena Helena Mazur-Nowak
Bożena Helena Mazur-Nowak was born in 1958 in Opole, Poland. In 2004 in search of work,she migrated to Great Britain, where she lives and works. Bozena works in a hospital in Operating Theatres as an auxiliary nurse.,helping people,So in short one can say ,she is the mother of a broken heart. Bozena is also a Happy grandmother and an eternal dreamer.
Emigration has been a difficult choice for her because, as she says, “Life in the home country on the edge of poverty, with no chance to work.is a miserable existence leading almost to madness, And suddenly opens a window to the world and invites you to reach for new possibilities. So I reach – not without fear, after a long deliberation – I reach,leaving the past behind and begin to build a new life. At the heart is a longing that brings poems “.
Cormorants Return
Cormorants swung a circle above the beach
Look down at the empty nest
Unite in a passenger flight in key
Sand glitters golden amber
In clenched hand white scallop
Warm days like yesterday
Recently was the piston and the buzz here
Chaise overturned remembers summer
Wind-blown sails flutter
Wild beach frozen in silent reverie
Mention of lovers sighs
With the hope that the cormorants will return

Goodbye
Spell does not work anymore
Your heart so cold
I was your claim
You burned it
Now I have to say "no"
Time to go

Scheherazade
Scheherazade ,you are like lost treasure
Who I managed to find without a map
He said
Your lips are like a mystery
I want to share with you
Added
if your eyes could talk would tell the story
Which I could listen to forever
Let me he ask
And so just using the word he dressed me in jewels
Became my confidant
And I was like Scheherazade
Filled out our nights telling stories about love

Happiness As A Slice Of Bread
Take me for a walk along the river
On the meadow nestled into the edge
Where the sun sings from above
And the wind my dress raises up
Pick up for me a bouquet of wild flowers
Tangle love into it with a pink ribbon
On the bench under the fragrant jasmine
Read poems written in the spring
In the evening back to home
Let's hear the crickets lullaby
Under the sky that we favor
Let's have bread that smells of happiness

River
Flows from the source of life
Thin trickle
Tdly quietly
And for a moment turn into
A torrent
Not terrible obstacles
Despite many turns
More and more still ahead
Poured out upon the meadow everyday
Sometimes even the shafts break
Deeper trough
The road forks
Giving rise to new rivers
The valley of golden autumn affects lazy
Release more slowly
Going to the sea of passing
Our lives

The Apple Tree
Do you remember the apple tree dear?
It’s deeply hidden in the orchard
So I liked to be that once
My darling I’ll meet you there
In the middle of May, bathed in flowers,
Attracting a swarm of bees
Sweet smell of apple flowers
Our trysts; it did good for us.
Petals lay a white carpet,
And we are huddled together.
You were then so close to me
Why isn’t today the same?
I do not know

Intro To Three Choruses Of Love
"Love don't answer questions
Love don't pay no mind
Love don't know hesitation
Love will make you blind"
Blind Willie Loveless (1916-1963)
Love-First Chorus
In the throes of love
Our hero loses his tight grip
On his own identity, above
It all before, now he slips
Beneath the surface
Of her icy demeanor
Remembers her kiss
From the year before
Struggles to hear her
Voice calling to him
From that ancient river
But his chances are slim
To none and besides
She only loved him in passing
Unlike the natural tides
It was whim, not everlasting.

Love-Second Chorus
In love's undertow
Our heroine delights
In unraveling her beau's
False reality, his night
Turning into day
The right hand not knowing
What the left hides away
She is not exactly crowing
In triumph, rather
She is annoyed at his vanity
As if only he could gather
The spoils of their love and she
Had to be content with
Standing at the water's edge
As he disappeared in the mist
Or stood forlornly at the ledge
Of his own towering ego
Ready to take the perilous plunge
Past a thunderous roaring flow
Of miscommunication, expunge
His soul of love's false effects
The yearning, the desire, the joy
And need for her embrace, sex
Was the means, never her ploy.

Love-Third Chorus
Love is the call and response
The give& take& the in & out
Apart from each other, nonchalance
May allow pause and room for doubt
Together nothing can breach
Their eyes locking in mid air
Appraisal of the love in reach
And denial of that awful despair
Which loomed large in their past
Before they met and understood
How theirs was destined to last
If any mortal love could.

Briefly
Without regret
With words that heal the soul
Softly and tenderly offered
Sincere
And intuitively spoken
On angels wings'

Songs Of Vibrant Spring(Haiku Chain)
When perfumed laced notes
Fill a once cold laden ground
I kiss the face of Spring
Caressing the earth
With all her new finery
A newness abounds
Beauty roams the earth
No longer in disguise
Rebirth reigns supreme

Love's Blessings (A Double Etheree)
Love
Patient
Without gall
Spreading the joy
Of selfless giving
It's face,a glowing light
Contagious in its pure form
Harbinger of peaceful moments
Immeasurable, as twinkling stars
Unexpected returns for the giver
Often admired by those in need most
So rare a gift,seldom seen by some
Never wasted,long sought after
Healer,teacher and noble
Casts a light to subdue
The darkest of nights
Pleasing to all
Evoking
Laughter
Love

These Tender Moments(Senryu Chain)
These tender moments
A snapshot of perfect love
A minds' souvenir
Unspoiled passion
Hearts,minds,bodies entangled
Oblivious souls
Love's fire ignites
Unaware of distractions
Time is infinite
