“Dark Bloom”

Dark bloom

Dark roses bloom, /

strong with desire’s thorns, /

drenched in rain and tears.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Hold”

Hold

The vase holds water. /

The flowers hold memories. /

The heart holds the tears.

“Empty exit”

Empty exit

Music made with tears, /

dissonance flows over me. /

Words clang: bullet, heart.

“Alone”

Alone

Falling yellow tears, /

this sere autumn day is not /

for me, alone.

“Waiting”

Waiting

Widow’s tears, waiting /

by the empty walkway. /

The gate remains closed.

“Spring”

Spring

Spring begins gray, /

Bleary eyes crusted with tears, /

Yawning into sun.

“Winter rain”

Winter rain

I see you on leaves, /

lost tears of the winter rain. /

I see my rain, too.

“Tears”

Tears

The gray cloud monster /

clutches at the evening sun, /

squeezing free the tears.

“Fold”

Fold

The night’s rain and wind /

bent the sunflower floret. /

Tears in the morning.
