Both good and bad die
in winter of discontent.
Casualty, peace.

Moon lit tide rolls in
Cresting beached sand, drifts back in place
To depth where it began

Prevailing and Trade Winds blow
Ever engulfing above and below hemisphere split
Amidst mercury now in reform

Before you I stand naked
Dissolved with nothing to bare, you see
What was will never be

I'm sitting alone in a store full of books;
Why have people turned into crooks?
There's lots of people but not with me,
Guess I'll have to climb a tree!
It's been years since my union failed;
Guess I'm too much to be entailed.
Too odd I am -eccentric-YES,
But I always do my best!
Is there noone for this romantic lost-
Love comes from the heart-there is no cost.

Spring snow and redwoods.
Transience and permanence.
Which is our friendship?

About this poem:
This is a haiku I wrote many years ago when I was living in Clifornia.
In the seventies Haikus were very popular in Northern Califormia, as were many things Japanese aand Indian: the hippie era and 'alternative' living and religions.

Thank you God for this new day. And all the blessings that comes my way. Lord shield me don't lead me astray. For you're immortal, i man-of-clay. Let your holy spirit guide if you may. Secure me: by keeping the tempter at bay. Indeed lord you have the final say. This in name of Jesus i pray. Amen!

Silently you crept
around my house covering
all with delicate
Precison smoothly
coating the landscape with fine
icy white frosting.
