apple haiku
Cascades of pink lace
Adam and Eve in Eden
Skin, flesh, pip, stalk, gone
Cascades of pink lace
Adam and Eve meet a snake
Skin, flesh, pip, stalk, gone

Catch 22
Coalition tried
To save the country money
With massive job cuts.
Loss of income tax,
Paid more dole, had to borrow
More than Labour had.
Fewer consumers
To help the economy.
Did they really save?

Gray Earth
Gray Earth and gray sky
Eternity in limbo
Lost souls in peril
My husband Scott once again recorded the audio version for me.

The Air is Still
The air is still, quite
The freezing touch of his hand
Death is by my side
This audio was provided by my husband Scott

Anger
Anger consumes me
Eats my soul like a cancer
Self inflicted hell
P.S. The audio recording was recorded by my daughter Samantha.

Ring of Roses
Crisp within her vase
Dead red roses on display
Fragile in the light
Lack of sickly scent
Seeing beauty in decay
Brittleness deflects
Look but do not touch
Your fingers are forbidden
Petals turn to dust
Floral deviance
Delighting in senescence
Ring of rosy death

Winter Friendships
`
So many winter friendships
save but a few
thaw with the sparkle of spring.
`
Could this be brought on by S.A.D.? Perhaps...
WIth a bit of trepidtion I am posting this micropoem.
Hope you like :-)
Please make your response or comment on my profile page. Thank you.

why do bananas
Why do bananas
Rock hard, green, intractable -
Once bought, turn to squelch!

Turtle swims - happy
Plastic bag floats - enticing
Nobility sunk by man
