Bee at peace

Rest in my window. /

Recumbent under glass. /

Cryptic bee at peace.

Scent of rancid sex. /

Poem and photo: “Rings”

Rings

Onion rings. /

Saturn’s rings. /

Take a bite or two. /

Ice cream cone /

Hanging all alone /

Up there in the blue. /

It’s called Freezo /

But what do we know, /

Except the old is new. /

Stand in line /

Like stars aligned /

Order from the menu.

Pick a treat /

Order complete /

Get some ketchup, too. /

Food in a bag /

Heavy it may sag, /

Until you eat it through.

Haiku and photo: “Decay”

Decay

Decay touches all /

Arrives with kind indifference /

Grips with gray delight.

A Splash of Green

Flowers collected /

Bundled into a bouquet /

Splashed with green grass pods.

My dentist perplexed. /

Been chewing on your fingers? /

One cavity found.

Haiku to you Tuesday: “Love”

Love

Is love hard as stone /

or supple as a paint stroke? /

Does it grind or flow?
