“Almost” haiku

Almost

Spring is almost there /

Budding slightly beyond sight /

And Winter’s dark cane.

Colors of winter. /

Snow and holy berries, /

Grace within the cold.

“Looking backward” haiku

Looking backward /

No one remembers the rain /

Only the hammers.

“Branching” haiku

Branching

The full moon beyond /

Silhouette of winter trees /

Near to quiet Earth.

“Somewhere” haiku

Somewhere

Somewhen and in there /

Flowing out and back again. /

Time’s arrow bending.

Guardians quiet: /

Erect, constant, and unmoved. /

Weathering secrets.

Saturday silliness: “Snowpocalypse”

The snowpocalypse has begun. /

We can no longer see the sun. /

To the stores we must run: /

White bread, beer, milk — until done. /

Oh, snow is so fun. /

The snowpocalypse has begun.

Blue on Blue

Blue on blue

Earth blue and sky blue /

White colors the square and clouds. /

Limbs and shadows paint.
