“Mountain kiss”

Mountain kiss

Whipped cream mountain kiss, /

Berries touching a waffle, /

Subtly love comes.

“Wings”

Wings

Melting or hardened, /

Icarus learned too late: /

“Wings will weigh me down.”

Kindness flowers — /

even in winter’s depths — /

in full scent and bloom.

“My cat”

My cat

Even as the world grows /

odd, my old cat still purrs and /

demands his dinner.

Evening phantom /

Blood red sun soon black.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Wit”

Wit

Wit is like a screw: /

biting enough to grab hold, /

tight enough to stay.

“To pluck is…”

To pluck is…

Breathe softly the scent. /

Flowers remind you to let go. /

To pluck is to forget.

“Grasp”

Spring in February. Cocuses and daffodils. Purple and yellow. #022418

Grasp

Oppressing hands grasp /

through fear and not respect. /

Blooms still share beauty.
