The journey

Into the wide world, /

One step begins the unknown /

One heart brings new love.

Perplexes

The measure of time /

it no longer does.

Into the bedroom, /

Cuddling, I took my snacks. /

No mask was required.

Writer named Flynn

There one was a writer named Flynn, /

Who had trouble knowing where to begin. /

In medias res, /

he heard was the place. /

but he didn’t know how to get in.

My son, the basketball, swings /

freely in the park.

Haiku to you Thursday: “City”

City

Green near, blue far back. /

Mankind’s river flows between /

concrete, trees, and dreams.
