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.

“Palindrome day”
Palindrome day
Say Goodbye
To Palindrome Day.
It comes and it goes
Just the same way.
Some demand it
Have more to say.
But it comes and goes
Just the same way.
Put it in forward
Or reverse play:
02022020
Has the same sway.
There may have been
Much more in the clay
When the ground hog
Tested his shadow’s lay.
But if more winter comes
Or if winter goes today
02022020
Will carry us away.

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.

Clouds and shadows painted /
With tints of winter sunlight. /
Bare limbs full of gray.
