naked Winter trees
thrashed by freezing wind and rain
now bearing Spring buds

Diverging roads
Virtual realities
Of traveling dreams
Ghosts gathered to play
The game of Russian roulette
No drama: all dead
The news from Ukraine
Feed on tragedy and pain
Rolling tanks crush peace

Fresh as a flower
Love that doesn’t fade with time
Blowing in the wind

About this poem:
Experimenting a little more with Haiku (nature) versus Senryu (feelings) .....5-7-5 format. Using a very structured format when writing poetry often helps to create such creativity and emphasis on words denoting feelings......amazing how descriptive language becomes....like music almost following conventions.

Flapping growing tired
Freedom is invisible

caught in the moment
reflection in a window
who covets their time
It's a sad sad song
beyond all hope of appeal
holding your photo
stealing from Dylan:
Along the watchtower
all the women came and went
princes kept the view

She came down running
from the frosted virgin snow
stood on the roadside
in the evening winter glow
as the northerlies did blow
