Poem and photo: “Into the Earth”

Into the Earth

The stream of color /

the leaves of sound /

the grounding of light /

into the Earth we are bound.

Haiku and photo: “Open Garden”

Open Garden

The Earth will never /

Be the same, but it is not /

Ours to begin with.

The world

Over my shoulder, /

Earth is a small orb in space. /

Still, it fills my dreams.

Haiku and photo: “Clouds”

Clouds

Morning light, gray clouds /

Earth below, folded in shrouds /

Of deep rays and rain. /

Haiku to you Thursday: “New world”

New world

We will build beauty /

When we make our new world. /

And plant our ugly.

Haiku and photo: “Setting”

Setting

The Earth turns away /

Receding her face from light. /

Buds hold spring within.

Haiku and photo: “Plead”

Plead

From the depths of space /

The pale blue dot pleads again: /

Love the one you’re with.

Home

Behold, it is home, /

Alone in darkest sky. /

Womb of our desires.

A cup of Mercury

I swallowed from the cup of Mercury

to cover my absurdity.

The ambrosia of Venus

was cloudy in toxic meanness.

I raised a toast to ol’ Earth

the land of mirth and birth.

I’d thought I’d reached the stars

but was only a sip of Mars.

“Here’s mud in your eye,”

I said to Jupiter by and by.

I left a ring around Saturn —

just following an old pattern.

I drank from Uranus

though you thought me an ignoramus.

Things got kind of blurry

drinking from Neptune in such a hurry.

I got blotto on Pluto —

as a planet I couldn’t let go.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Puddles”

Puddles in the rain. /

Transitory friendships. /

Earth absorbs them all.
