Triple Haiku for 2025 [No.1. ❤ Love’s ❤ Revolt ❤]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the world weeps: enough!

set Palestine’s people free

 love’s the only way

stokers of hate’s fire

tried to bury love’s dissent

but buried good seed

we’re now growing strong

our shoots dance in winds of change

love, bring Spring’s revolt!

Limerick for 2025 [no.1]

I once had a whirlwind romance,

with a snowman I’d met at a dance:

though his name, it was Dick,

he’d less carrot than stick,

and sweet bugger all in his pants.
