Failure

Is their poetry /

in failure? Bleak winter sun /

pockets its promise.

Moon

Barren branches clutch /

at passing quarter moon; grip /

empty into dawn.

Fire far away

Sky fire far away /

beckons a tired winter day. /

Eternity rests.

Goodbye

Footsteps here and gone. /

What you hold you someday lose. /

What you embrace stays.

Remembrance

When you reach the end /

there’s a sign. Not an exit, /

but in remembrance.

Haiku and photo: “Gallon grief”

Gallon grief

Heartache, ice cream takes /

one gallon or two: cone, scoops, /

pain moves — heart to head.

Snow fell as I slept: /

Haiku and photo: “Off of”

Off of

“Please stay off the rocks.”

Water and leaves didn’t listen.

They said, “Unheard of.”
