Gray clouds hovering.
Weary hearts, ooze purple worry.
Yellow sunlight, lost.

Haiku
Haiku Whispers
Words sail on air
landing upon ears shoreline
evil ghost ship.
…
Organize paper.
Organize words of story.
Reader’s Reward.
…
Love is a magnet
lodged within another.
Invisible pulling.
…
A snake is a snake.
Lie of feathers and of feet…
A snake is a snake.
…
Waterfall of words
splashing loose on the page
upstream masterpiece.

Moxie of the Day
Up to and including
black ink, on slicing paper,
rules only, for me.
…
Self proclamation
words as hollow as birds bones
reality breaks.
…
Bully’s moxie. Glass.
The oppressed finally turn
Hate becomes shattered.

Lost Poet found in Haiku
College at forty,
fuel for my family success
My revelation
…
Soft light falls on books,
blue electronic light, chokes,
my book, in darkness.
…
Winners are hated
Motion, poisons the hissing idle
I remain immune
…
Poet spilled heart
readers drink love’s tale of red
Poets drink readers.

Pink Morning Haiku
Marry, white and red,
pink hued children dancing,
on morning clouds.
…
Smell, pink rose petals,
friends dissolve into love’s ache,
red lips soon dance.
…
Pink banners wave proud,
“Die Cancer!” tears and smiles
fight, cell rebellion.
