Our Next Family Reunion

just yesterday we were laughing
crying having a good time
remembering what was given to be together
our life was meant to be
and just like that.......

gone.......

GOD.......

just.......

and just like that.......
sleep sleep sleep until Jesus comes
but just like that when we all
get to Heaven our song
remembering our promise we'll cast our Heavenly crowns at Jesus feet

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

The Major Star (haibun)

The major star who was hundreds of centuries old
was finally dying yet not in vain, for with its death
comes new life and new planets formed as it splinters

Water so cool and clear
life giving to all our worlds
stars birth formed you

As a star dies the gases ignite and fuse into droplets
these then are carried to other worlds to start new life
Scientists believe that all life came from these deaths

Moonshine beams dancing
causing flickering shadows
that dance joyously

Our own moon and all the sun's orbiting planets were
formed in one of these explosions. All we see and touch
came from a dying major star

Sunbeams hit the water
refracting and enhancing
the crystal river

Sometime in the future our own major star the Sun will
die leaving life as we know it gone yet as prophets
have said death is the start of rebirth so lets enjoy our stars

Stars hide their faces
behind the fluffy white cloud
just an odd twinkle

Blackened Night

Winter rush of raven’s wings
whisper dream omens
long nights....

Hot wind
breath of demons sickly sweet
restless dreams, chilly nights
worry...

Sharp edge
dry fears cold in late lamplight
frayed sides of cracked dreams
time waits...

His Eyes

I couls see the look in his eyes,
The look he gets when our mother cries,
A look of horror,
A look of pure terror,
And as I saw him shed a single tear,
He turns away...
And flies.

If only u could see the missing puzzle piece

I sometimes wish that you would see,
that I'm in front of you,
and hear my calls to you at night,
where I am here alone,
I wonder if you notice how,
I care so much for you,
but it seems that I shall be nothing,
to you forever more,
someday I hope you turn around,
and see what's truly there,
a girl that is a perfect piece,
that fits into your heart.

Maybe now you'll know

You made me skip broken heart beats
but still thats nothing new
I smile when I see your face
but thats been done before
*
I used to seein smiles and hugs
but yours is something more
I dont know how this can be true
this is why I liked you
*
Your safe warm hugs i know I need
are tight and never end
Your smile mirrors on my face
and wipes away my pain
*
My heart stops cause of what I know
and what I meant to you
As you brought me something to love
by simply being you
*
With just one blink I see your face
As clear as bright blue seas
And yet I see the memories
that still can make me smile
*
You always meant so much to me
but in so many ways
So once you asked why I liked you
Well maybe now you'll know

About this poem:
I had the most amazing best friend, who had everything a girl would love both from his personality and looks but he constantly doubted himself. As I used to like him he always asked what did you ever like about me every time he felt insecure and I could never come up with the right words so I wrote this. And from love to friendship its still true to this day

and think of things that might've been

I noticed the monkey may have the key

but that is better than green.
