Waiting
Reaching for the stars /
he found a half moon waiting /
at the bare limb’s edge.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Half moon waiting”
Waiting
Reaching for the stars /
he found a half moon waiting /
at the bare limb’s edge.
Haiku to you Thursday: “Cheap soles”
Troubling questions /
crunched under trampling footsteps. /
Cheap soles speaking lies.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Glisten”
Upon the brown grass /
glistens winter’s translucence, /

Haiku to you Thursday: “Pain”
Pain is a song /
whose melody is as true /
as its words are inadequate.
[Editor’s note: a modified haiku structure, varying a little from the 5 syllable, 7 syllable, 5 syllable structure. Still, I believe it carries the spirit of a haiku.]

Haiku to you Thursday: “Rope”
Before the morning sun, /
