Little girl
At play with pots and cups today;
A cook who puts her plates away—
Joy awhirl!
Little boy
At bat with eyes that strain to catch
The flight of white across the patch—
Swings . . . more

When you meet,
what do I treat,
a co-traveler has found,
in a lonely street.
When you smile,
eyes try to file,
these all moments,
and your style.
When you shy,
I begin to fly,
in the world of . . . more

Last night, I sent my father a series of completely disconnected images, thinking he would pick one as the inspiration for a haiku. Completely to my surprise, he found a way to incorporate all three.

Hot stones catechize my heart
Only to collide and grind
To sand
Rough motes on a stormy day
Allowed past fabric sentries
To live
Sprinkled as cops breaking feuds
Of . . . more

May Peace be your companion,
May Laughter be the music
that sings to your soul;
May Tears be your cleansing,

Timelessness
Today and yesterday
The ocean had a sense of timelessness
There was only morning and night
And in between
A foghorn sang
And driftwood people
Huddled together
On the graying sand
Now I . . . more

I am waiting.
resisting the urge
to peer through
the window
of your day,
while I wait for you.
You unlock the door,
peel off your mask,
nestle into your pj's . . . more

It was one of those flash and illuminate moments. I sat down with my first cup of coffee, and went straight to a Kill the thread article to see who was still in the running. Enroute I noticed an . . . more

I would stand naked in front of the mirror,
rosy twin peaks staring back, and I would wonder
what to do with them...

There is nothing more
than this moment,
this feeling,
this touch,
this sigh,
these words.
All of our yesterdays
have vanished;
All of our tomorrows
are but a dream;

I want to
climb to the top
of you.
Dance around
your head
and see the view
from up there.
Visions come to
life as I tangle
in your hair.
Spinning circles
Twirling around
Laughing aloud . . . more

I slept alone
with you beside me
quietly mourned
my loss
I talked to myself
with you on the line
desperately withheld
my grief
I danced alone
with you in my arms
cautiously expressed . . . more

Tongue of sweet sage
Tastes the bitter truth
Teacher teach me

Red glare halts you in pursuit
Of speeding towards your destination
Florescent lights emit a sickly glow
Skin sallow, faces ail in ambient envy
Sun drenched riverbeds; cloudless . . . more

I feel like
crying tonight
just to let go.
Been holding on
for too long now.
Time to release.
Time to forgive.
I feel like
hiding tonight
just to be alone.
Been playing . . . more

Evening comes with
the rise of the moon,
the twinkle of stars,
the crickets' chirp,
the stealth of the spider,
the streetlight's dismal glow.
Tree branches reach into . . . more
