I Write Free Verses

**********************

I sleep along with my mother

in an open courtyard in warm winter

and I dig a well daily,

in snowy summer

dwelling my ink,

but my nib drinks a bawdy brandy

and my spade gets lost in fumbled  feat,

a sepulchre, in my refill

I drop an ice cube.

Bleak of Arctic ocean comes

like glow compression of cubes,

bringing circle of rhymes

In halves of  hearth and  snow

cracking steals away my stanza.

I write  free verses,

flows like a fresh freshet

dreaming

A Beethoven,

would dip in it!

One day!
