Photo finish Friday: “Annual physical”

Annual physical

I did five holes-in, /

pokes-in, turned my arms about. /

Blood hard to get out.

Haiku and photo: “Temple”

Temple

I am a temple /

Crumbling and ancient curses /

Food-haunted body.

Haiku and photo: “Nuts to you”

Nuts to you

It is not a nut. /

It is a legume, you say. /

I say, It’s a truck.

Forgotten treasure

Early books you find /

Sitting unknown on the shelf: /

Forgotten treasure.

Monday morning writing joke: “Lying writer”

There once was a writer from downtown, /

Who took his rejection lying around. /

He would open his e-mail /

And read the words: “No Sale.” /

Then say, “No need to get up to get down.”

Haiku and photo: “Sound”

Sound

One raindrop begins. /

One million raindrops reply. /

I cry among them.

Life begins

Blueberries obscured. /

Unfolding with each moment. /

Gracing the future.

Haiku and photo: “Will we…”

Will we…

Will we leave them tools? /

Or will we leave them burdens? /

What World will they see?
