Tanka

 

the forests'
many colors
adorn the dancers
they move
as a wind blown tree

 

 

laka goddess of dance tanka

 

the forests
many colors
adorn the dancers
they move
as a wind blown tree

 

 

the dogs stay close
the wind brings
strange scents of saltiness
do they know the joy
of the dolphins at play

 

 

Haiku

 

a romantic soul
on the very edge of seduction...
rascal redhead O Pele

 

 

Free Verse

 

Building A House

 

new lumber
standing tall again
gentle rain
blessings on the mountain
next to the Ohia forest thanking

the old ones
harvested timber
has made us shelter

 

 

Cinquain

 

Smoke Signals

 



spirits
of the old ones
shapeshift amoungst the leaves
smoke curls as the fire releases
sky songs
