Haiku 2 (lonesome nightingale---)

6am and falling rain
bed! how cosy you feel
this morning


wobbly legs misstep
toddler tumbles to the floor
screaming with fright


lonesome nightingale
serenades the airwaves
searching for his soul mate


mantis catches butterfly
I am very sad; yet, that is
the way of nature


motorcycle roars
penetrating the night
shattering the silence


on the waterfront
ocean liner calling her flock
- the loud blaring horn

Italian lover
My tongue licks you all over
You're like sweet clover

Longing Paradise (Haiku)

Longing paradise
I rubbed sand in my long hair
Leaping in the air

monkey

and think of things that might've been

I noticed the monkey may have the key

but that is better than green.

Haiku- Village Life

Sun heats the body

Rising bringing higher heat

The village now sleeps

~Haiku~ Antidisestablishmentarianism

"A" such a lonely word
all the way to the longest one
or do you believe so

Peaking thru the Clouds

Jagged hills i climb
Sparing me from the grasped world
Peaking thru the clouds

Anew

As earthquakes rumble
expand to split the surface
lives engulfed by loss

Tsunami washes
the earth’s crust while salty tears
seep into the core

Hearts shaken, broken
lovely lives drowned, buried, as
seasons’ sun radiates.

Still underneath skin
hope courses veins, awaiting.
Spring, where is thy bloom?
