Quotes about hover, page 7
Do not hover always on the surface of things, nor take up suddenly with mere appearances; but penetrate into the depth of matters, as far as your time and circumstances allow, especially in those things which relate to your profession.

Fading
I can hear you calling
Someone understand me.
Someone hold my hand.
Take me; take me from the land of falling shades.
Fading in and out of obscurity
The mystery has misted over
Clouded by the crowds that seem to hover around my lover.

Egrets
egrets return
to a single
riverside tree
some flap,
hover in pairs
some in flocks
fly, flutter like butterflies
till each gets a spot
the tree
a bouquet
of white blooms
as the sun sets
(saw in centre of Borneo this afternoon)

A New Beginning
the rain falls heavily
on the brown fields
the cracks of drought
heal and soften for
a new beginning
the farmer arrives
bringing his plow
the white herons
hover
the frogs croak
the fish are awake after
a long hibernation

The Willow Cries
The willow
stands silently
at the waters
edge.
Waiting for a
breeze
to gently
carress her hair
carrying it
to the wind.
Her eyes grow
misty
as clouds hover
the horizon.
begin to gather
rain.
As the moisture

A White Butterfly
a white butterfly flies
over a bouquet of white roses
intended for the
dead loved one
it lands on one of the petals
and then it disappears
i look for it and with my
breath i shy it away on a wish
that it may hover
on the red patch of my heart

Katherine
We see you as we see a face
That trembles in a forest place
Upon the mirror of a pool
Forever quiet, clear and cool;
And in the wayward glass, appears
To hover between smiles and tears,
Elfin and human, airy and true,
And backed by the reflected blue.

To A Neighbor
hot noodle soup that's newly cooked
outside the night is cold
as stars begin to twinkle, the moon to hover
on top of the banana palms
the sound of bamboo leaves shall serve as music
to a choir of cicadas singing
can you share your time for a cup of noodle with me?

Untitled 24
outside the window
this early morning
blue clouds hover
on the green hill
like the curly hair
of a little boy
on the guava tree
a twig without leaves
a bird sings
with blue feathers
the kingfisher
below it a pool
of rippled waters
a fish is seducing
its black beak

Song On The Water.
As mad sexton's bell, tolling
For earth's loveliest daughter
Night's dumbness breaks rolling
Ghostily:
So our boat breaks the water
Witchingly.
As her look the dream troubles
Of her tearful-eyed lover,
So our sails in the bubbles
Ghostily
Are mirrored, and hover
Moonily.
