Home

Behold, it is home, /

Alone in darkest sky. /

Womb of our desires.

Haiku and photo: “Benched”

Benched

Cane at a park bench. /

Borrowed book and found cap. /

Cold weather, warm words.

In the window

Sunlight fades from sky. /

Evening rises in windows. /

House in silhouette.

Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “Truth”

Truth

Digging up answers /

Is just like digging up bones. /

Results we’ll bury.

“Down,” haiku

Down

Deep in the abyss /

My unclaimed treasure awaits. /

I map my lost depths.

“Light climbing” haiku and photo

Light climbing

Light climbs the night limbs, /

Touching bare the winter trees. /

Moon a ripe, white fruit.

Haiku and photo: “Night Visitor”

Night visitor

Ancient face abounds;

Deep into the night it shines.

See in darkness home.

Haiku: “The Big Bang”

The Big Bang

Some boom much sooner. /

Up into the air they zoom. /

Missiles are my life.

Haiku on Sunday

Rhymed or blank verse?

Old words to live by, /

When life sucks and blows /

In the skin or soul.

Drink

Drink among the leaves. /

Abandoned upon the ground. /

Promise left undone.
