The world is but a canvas to the imagination...(Thoreau)

Haikus


On Love


Stone heart, locked away

Your heart knocks, gently, sweetly
Can she come to play? 

**
 

Lightness of being

you bring quietly to me.
My soul comes to life. 

** 

If uncertainty

comes to you in days ahead,
look into my eyes. 

** 

A tear on my cheek

A long-hidden precious gift
Trusted to your care. 

**
Her heart’s words like waves
Rush to his far island shore
Lost in dark, vast seas. 

**
 
Our bed is empty
Train whistle cries far away
I hug my pillow. 

**
 
Dozen red roses.
Velvet petals open to
a sweet smell of love. 

**
 
Intoxication
He chose in place of my heart
Love’s glass is empty


On Nature


Spring
Crocus, spring’s promise
Color peeking through white snow
Long winter’s farewell.
 
** 

Summer
Yellow summer day
Sun glimmering through green leaves
Cicada’s warm song. 

**
 
Fall
Fall’s gray, misty cloak
Bronze leaf spinning to the ground
To rest with others. 

**
 
Winter
Snowflakes dance in wind
Hushing nature with a touch
Winter’s white blanket. 

**
 
Wave
Wave moving, growing
Excitement building, rushing
Calm, peaceful water.

 **
 
Snowflakes
Crisp air nips my nose
Snowflakes dust my lashes
A walk in winter.
