Shapes
The shapes of nature, /
from spring flowers to raindrops, /
turn time into life.

Monday morning writing joke: “Writer from Nantucket”
There once was a writer from Nantucket/
Who stuffed her writing wish list bucket. /
Crammed with crumpled notes /
Stuffed until it bloats /
Each list a rewrite ending in “F6$k it!”

Your adventure
Live your adventure. /
If it exceeds your limits /
Grow within it.

Haiku and photo: “Broken”
Broken
Broken tree shades /
broken lives laid in graves, their /
names in stone and wind.

Poem and photo: “Rings”
Rings
Onion rings. /
Saturn’s rings. /
Take a bite or two. /
Ice cream cone /
Hanging all alone /
Up there in the blue. /
It’s called Freezo /
But what do we know, /
Except the old is new. /
Stand in line /
Like stars aligned /
Order from the menu.
Pick a treat /
Order complete /
Get some ketchup, too. /
Food in a bag /
Heavy it may sag, /
Until you eat it through.

Road
Adventure begins /

Haiku to you Thursday: “Clattering”
Anger is a stone /
clattering for attention, /
never finishing.

Haiku to you Tuesday: “Love”
Love
Is love hard as stone /
or supple as a paint stroke? /
Does it grind or flow?
