Lapses

Another year lapses /

Burdened with what might have beens: /

Tomorrow whispers.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Turning”

Turning

Winter sky reflects /

in glass and in clouds: wonder, /

pain, weather, and blue.

Holding

Winter evening hues /

paint the troubled sky at dusk /

dark into night.

Haiku and photo: “Lighting”

Lighting

Lights: some on, some off, /

some solid, some reflections, /

hang from tree or glass.

Saturday silliness: “Seasonal Greetings”

Seasonal Greetings

I got a Christmas card from you. /

Now, dang it, I feel obligated to /

Send you one in return, /

A card to make your envy burn. /

Yes, and it will be homemade. /

By my hand, the artistry bade. /

Or maybe something sentimental and rank, /

Since all I draw is to draw a blank.

Haiku and photo: “Smudge”

Smudge

Merry Christmas smudged /

over smiles and tears; charting /

its own way through pain.

Haiku and photo: “Solstice”

Solstice

Winter loves slowly. /

Its long shadows stretch like life /

compactly marooned.
