Embers
Touched but not touching, /
the moon carries its embers: /
unrequited love.

Translucent
September sun shines /

Thin clouds whisper words. /
Afternoon shadows my mind. /
Fall sun winks through trees.

Breathe in the moment. /
Breathe out the mind’s chatter. /
Breathe, to say the least.

Two chairs
We shall find ourselves, /

Haiku to you Thursday: “Once above”
Once above
What was once above /

blurring sight and streets.

Hurricane rain
Her hurricane rain: /
Tattered, battered, liquid skirt. /
Dignity falling.

Unpainted
Out of frame, /
an unpainted apple tree /
endures the seasons.

Hey
Hey, girls write first. /
If I knew where to find them, /
I wouldn’t say a word.
