Reach

I am not a dream. /

Your waking will not end me. /

Lower that snack — now.

Bee hums to the beat /

Of sunflower serenade. /

Summer pollen song.

Senryu / haiku and photo: “The cut”

The cut

A surgeon’s suture /

The end of the operation /

A painful new start.

Hiding

Rain reaches the heart /

Hiding away in the sun /

Touching life with tears.

Haiku and photo – “Borderland”

Borderland

Flag hangs in stillness. /

Rain falls into its murmur. /

Wet dirge or rebirth?

Monday morning writing joke: “Writer from Montana”

There once was a writer from Montana,

Who always ate a morning banana.

Then one day he ran out.

He wailed an ugly shout:

“Writing’s lost is appeal and manna.”

Hanging on

Moments speak to you. /

Do you listen? Do you see? /

How long will you breathe?

Senryu and photo: “Former self”

Former self

Some day you will find /

yourself hanging around and /

wonder where you’ve been.
