Zodiac Poems~Libra---Balance

Libra---Balance

Day and night

Like two sides of coin.

When daytime faints

Night appears.

Everyday, every night,

It alternates,

But has never reached the point of balance.

Dawn, the prelude of day,

The note that leads the world to brightness.

The Sun, dominating the world, the society

It dominates everything,

With its fiery flame.

Too little of it,

People complain,

For coldness, loneliness, and despair.

Too much of it,

People mutter,

For they are burning, impetuous, and aggressive.

They call out,

The day is not balanced

Dusk, the coda of the day,

The chord that accompanies nighttime

The moon, looking over the world, the nature.

It looks over everything,

With its calm crescent.

Too little of it,

People complain,

For fear, nightmare, and darkness.

Too much of it,

People mutter,

For they are hopeless, wishful, and passive.

They call out,

The day is not balanced.

Longer day means shorter night,

Longer night, with shorter day.

It seems the day

Will never be balanced.

But as the scale rises,

The sun and moon,

Both sit inside the plate.

It is time,

Where the day is balanced.

Zodiac Poems~Gemini---Cacophony

Gemini---Cacophony

Archangel and Lucifer,

One lives in heaven,

And the other lives in hell,

Although they are from the same root.

There comes the time,

They are composing for one piece

Of music.

The angel, with melodies in major,

Wants to compose a sonata.

Bright color, open sound,

Something can encourage people.

Perfect fifth, perfect eighth.

The music,

Full fills with hollow sound.

Each phrase,

Ends with a perfect cadence.

The angel,

Continuing the process,

Never realizes what will happen next.

The devil, with melodies in minor,

Willing to compose a serenade.

Sad feeling, minor mode,

Something would make people cry.

Diminished fifth, diminished seventh.

The score,

Full fills with dissonant.

Each phrase,

Ends with a deceptive cadence.

The devil,

Continuing the movement,

Never realizes what will happen next.

Somehow, the work is done,

And the Cherubim start to play the piece.

Noticing

Cacophony

And nothing else.

Zodiac Poems~Taurus---Money

Taurus---Money

Money,

Something that everyone loves.

People always say

That money can’t buy everything.

But there are people,

Who disagree with this saying.

Money

Can buy everything.

Directly or not,

But money can buy all the things.

Food, houses, furniture,

Thing that are necessary

And what we can buy with money.

These things have one thing in common,

They have

Prices.

Money

Can also buy things indirectly.

Fame, authority, happiness,

Things that can make life easier.

We don’t need that to live,

But we cannot deny

That these things make us feel good.

Money,

People say it cannot buy happiness,

They are wrong.

If you have billions of green stuff,

You will be able to buy

Anything you want.

You can enjoy the wealth

That the majority of people

Will never enjoy.

If you are not satisfied,

You can also give the money away,

Donate it to people

Who has real need.

This is another way,

That money can buy,

Or bring happiness

Among people.

Money,

Most people give it a special place in their heart.

But everything has two sides,

Don’t be fooled by the pretty face

Of money.

Zodiac Poems~Aries---Aria

Aries---Aria

The outstanding melody,

That carves into people’s mind.

The noticeable notes,

That fly into people’s ear.

She wants attention,

From people.

The sound is pure,

But harmonic.

Different from Recitativo,

Which is made up with words,

And speaking.

Boring,

Without any music.

Unlike Arioso,

Stands in between Aria,

And Recitativo.

It doesn’t belong to any.

Indifference,

Whether it wants melodies or words.

Aria,

With her melody flies far away,

Until it hits the edge of sky.

Then

It will bounce back,

So more people can hear it.

She wants attention,

From the whole world.

Doesn’t like accompaniment,

That will never stand out,

And be noticed by people.

Staying in the background,

She rather comes forward,

And let everyone realize that

She is there with her songs of rights.

Aria,

Using her voice,

Spreads her melody to the world.

But,

That is never enough for her.

She raises her pitch,

And writes out more phrases,

That can be easily noticed.

Her music,

Along with her expression,

Floats into the sky,

Beyond the atmosphere.

The universe,

Will be able to hear her melody

Of purity.

This Is Just to Say Parody

This is just to say
(Poem of William Carlos Williams, This is just to say parody)

I have got
The love
That was supposed
To be yours

And which
You were probably
Falling in
For days

Forgive me
That was not my purpose
So careless
And so unpredictable

Free verse poem---The Loneliness of Nature

The Loneliness of Nature

So much despair
Approaches

A grey lonely
Wolf

Howling with the blue corn
moon

Along one peaceful
Brook
