honing a poem...
I think over the inside
of a Hallmark card
breezy beach
I see the world for two
in a sandcastle
pondering haiku...
cherry blossoms scatter
in the morning sun
out in the cold
my shadow walks
with me
silence
punctuated
by falling snowflakes…
another dawn
rewriting haiku...
the veins on my right hand
bulge
Haiku
Sequence
Femme
Fatale
startled
doves
fill the spring sky
her hand in mine
she takes
a huge bite from an apple
my mouth on hers
wedding notice
her photo still placed on
the glass tabletop
Easter morning
as promised, I pour myself
a glass of wine
Four Seasons of Love
watching
the lake
swallow a spring sun—
her crimson lips
campfire…
the summer stars in her eyes
warm me up
maple leaves
falling all around us—
we stop holding hands
cold moon…
the twin size bed creaks
under our bodies
Spring,
Summer, Autumn, Winter … and Spring
hare
moon
a snake slithers
into tall grass
around and around
the pomegranate trees
a boy chases a girl
a maple leaf
zig-zags to the sidewalk
cicada's cries
snowfall
yesterday fifteen inches
today three
