Where Are the Words?

Powerless, I cry
How to show you this disgrace?
Death--no longer hers.

If one more

If one more old man
pulls out in front of me and
slows down, I will scream!

Joint Plot of Strangers

Someone I don't know,
buried beside you in death.
Who is this person?

Translated

Take me from this me

to that me and back again

better for the change.

Ripping off Williams/ Haikus catch up

This is just to say
I'm sorry I did not spend
more time touching you.

All those moments lost
on the road from here to there
talking of the stars.

Knowledge is Power

Insecurity
masked as diplomacy is
deceptive but true.

UoP Students

So rude and lazy
No one can be this stupid
Please just go away.

A Day

Sunrise in the East
she and I make love all day
Sunsets in the west.

Boy to Man

He looks like a man
but he is not as he seems
he is still a boy

The Most Important

I wanted to change

the world so fraught with chaos

made pancakes instead.

Between

Yellow brick stuck tight

sandwiched by asphalt rivers

brighten up the gray.

*inspiration image can be seen soon on my personal blog

The Farm

Green pastures kept safe
by old, rusted, wire fences
to keep the cows out.

Bubbles

Silver sequined glove
Living at Neverland Ranch
Michael Jackson's chimp

(This is my favorite haiku I've ever written!)

Puzzling

Cardboard cutout like

tiny island mystery

searching for the shore.

Here is a Valentine's haiku

Oh to kiss your soul!
I say, “I’ll show you mine if…”
But who will go first?
-Cynthia

Happy Birthday, Brandi!

The Earth finds its path
around the Sun once a year
to celebrate you.

Map

Thousands of dark lines
lead in many different
directions at once.

Up

Snowy white foam sits

heavy on the blackened bean

sunrise over clouds.

Capstone

Dozens of dead trees
cramped into a plastic tub
covered in black and blue marks.

Henrique

He said, "You don't make

music.  It moves through you."  I

like the sound of it.

Flights

Thirty-three steps up

fragmented notches taunt me

weighted by this tome

Swollen

Perfectly yellow
pieces of blue and green
pavement isn't my friend

Copy That

Mimeographed smudge

winter's violet banging

skies dusted with this

Still

Easy to forget
what happened yesterday
glad you can still smile

The Lighthouse

The lighthouse beckons
me back to the place called home
the source of all light.
