Haiku 2025
late winter's bright skies
buds and sprouts begin to form
New Year's vibrant song.
in the gentle breeze,
mem'ries sprout with new life,
herald new year's joy.
New Year’s breath tendrils
it must now be that season
melting snow and all

awakening (haiku cluster)
Chill spreads through the land,
Branches bare, skies hold their breath,
Snow's touch soon to come.
Frost whispers softly,
Bare earth awaits its white cloak,
Winter’s gift unfolds.
In twilight’s quiet,
Hope stirs with each frosty breath,
Snowfall's gentle kiss.
Trees reach silent arms,
Night's first flake drifts to the ground,
World awakens bright.
Hearts lift in still...

This is not a draft
I don’t want to mask my poetry
I want you to understand me
Curse your perfect rhythms, rhymes, haikus
Your lyricism, your literary
When I try to adopt it, I turn mute.
Something channels through me
(I’ve never really found the root)
A demanding stream of consciousness
That cannot stop to breathe, let alone
Wait, conceptualise, draft, redraft
I can’t!

Haiku
While you face the past
Your ass faces the future.
Turn around quickly!

HAIKU: SO GOOD
You're too good to me;
but very good for me too.
You bring me to life.

HAIKU: SUMMER AFTERNOON AT LEAFY GLADES
Dappled shadows dance
across my Summered window.
The trees are laughing.

....................................
Tears flow face feathers
Wrapping the world in wet wings
Cradling hearts broken .
…………………………………..
Emptiness vacuum
Space floating in space floating
Stars shining for love.
…………………………………..
Smiling beautiful
Peaceful tranquility there
Rest now your heartsfists.
…………………………………..
Love is flowing down
Love lasts longer then hatred
Overflowing love.
