Fidgety
In my pajamas,
fidgety beneath the moon.
Both of us are full.

“Waves”
Waves
Waves in the water, /
waves in the sky, waves hello, /
and waves goodbye.

“Image”
Image
Vine, bent by ice, /
image of a leaf still green, /
cold unbent by light.

“Four swans”
Four swans
Four swans in the snow. /
Haloed white on lichened stone. /
Unmoved and unmoving.

Flag
Shinning in the sun, /
lifted by a light wind, /
may it still hold hope.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Rain”
Rain
The rain never ends. /
Even when it stops outside /
the drops weep inside.

“To fly free in space”
To fly free in space. STS-41B.
Some day, when I float /
up there, above the Earth, /
flowers still will bloom.
Some day, when up there,
I float above the Earth,
rivers will still flow.
When up there, some day,
I float above the Earth,
the clouds will still breathe.
Above the Earth, some day,
when I float up there,
Moon and Sun will laugh.
You do not deserve
some day, they say, this beauty
of the Earth below.
