Read, Donnie, Read

Savor every word. /

Turn the pages respectfully. /

Arm the mind and heart.

Haiku and photo: “Plead”

Plead

From the depths of space /

The pale blue dot pleads again: /

Love the one you’re with.

Haiku and photo: “Clang, clang”

Clang, clang

New engines, old cars /

Train clangs about its journey /

Rides a cloudy day.

Spring

Spring begins gray, /

Bleary eyes crusted with tears, /

Yawning into sun.

Olympus Mons

Rise, volcano, rise /

On an ancient world nearby /

Robots call you home.

Haiku and photo: “The bark”

The bark

My dog is at home /

Shielded from human folly /

Except her owner’s.

Haiku and photo: “Some days”

Some days

Some days, parts are gone. /

Some days, your ride is missing. /

Some days just subtract.
