If only it were true.

Round

Round as the seasons. /

Round as beginnings to ends. /

Round, my thoughts of you.

Let us

Let us ride balloons: /

Up to the heavens and moons. /

Light as grace and stars.

Snow sits in your chair, /

surveys your sleeping garden, /

Sad it will miss spring.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Sometimes”

Sometimes

I hold you now /

in memories high as clouds — /

sometimes just as thin.

“Moments”

Moments

Moments are time’s stones. /

Some build bridges to the heart. /

Some become fall leaves.

Brushy Mountain

Watchers and watched speak /

A Saturday rain.
