The Big Bang

Some boom much sooner. /

Up into the air they zoom. /

Missiles are my life.

Haiku on Sunday

Rhymed or blank verse?

Old words to live by, /

When life sucks and blows /

In the skin or soul.

Haiku and photo: “Drink”

Drink

Drink among the leaves. /

Abandoned upon the ground. /

Promise left undone.

Photo finish Friday (and haiku): Legacy

Legacy

Clouds and shadows painted /

With tints of winter sunlight. /

Bare limbs full of gray.

Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “Frozen”

Frozen

Not so long ago, /

Nature’s life blood arrested. /

Locked in winter’s ice.

“Forget not,” haiku and photo

Forget not

Let us not forget /

Those who define heroism /

By the rule of hate.

“Colors,” haiku and photo

Colors

Gray is a color /

Painting clouds and earth in light /

Filtered in unknowns.
