Bowl of clouds
The bowl of the sky, /
Nourishing heaven and earth, /
Overflows with clouds.

Part of the morning. /
Thoughts of another’s life. /
His moment or mine?

Haiku to you Thursday: “Arrival”
Arrival
Busy are the bees: /
arriving, leaving, buzzing, /
feeding. Fall whispers.

Saturday silliness: “Unloose the Zeus”
Unloose the Zeus
upon these Olympic games.
Make room for his use;
to leave him out is our shame.
He’s the reason for the season,
be it winter or be it summer.
To ban him is but treason
and nothing short of a bummer.
Unloose the Zeus.
Do it now, I command.
And don your birthday suits,
play the games as originally planned.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Turn over”
Turn over
Cat looks up; you down. /
Ground is the sky is the ground. /
Stardust at your feet.

Haiku and photo: “Hanging”
Hanging
Some mornings don’t work. /
You try your best to succeed /
But you can’t hang on.
