haiku
the following haiku first appeared on twitter
*
autumn is knocking
she is welcome in my house
stay with me awhile
*
my heart is missing
a little bit of your love
when you are not near
*
pretending the world
fits in the palm of my hand
i give it to you
*
blue moon arising
awakens your deepest sleep
dreams always alive
*
blessings disguising
like a sun never rising
come redemption day
*
stars slipping eastward
fading past the horizon
last minute wishes
*
water refreshes
spiritual revelations
the baptist moves on
*
early morning dew
succulent and glistening
thanks to rising sun
*
the cat is outside
pretending to be a ghost
banging shit around
*
angel in my eye
my peripheral vision
seeing believing
*
orchestrated drums
beating in eights and sixteenths
calls ominous clouds
*
saturday downtown
crowded open air market
in search of robot
*
catching falling star
hitching interstellar ride
forever in flight
*
hopping southbound train
kansas city here i come
home of the monarchs
*
forever searching
truth right around the corner
stop and take a look
*
painting memories
colors of your emotions
brings you back to life
*
beautiful rain
soft and intoxicating
pour me another
*
knuckleball pitcher
voodoo artist on the mound
thorn in batter’s side
*
just ’round the corner
lemonade for a nickel
be back in a bit
*
lost in lonesome thoughts
figuring out the universe
one star at a time
*
scooby dooby doo
one far out and righteous dude
digs the scooby snacks
*
saturday morning
cartoons coffee and crossword
in any order
*
hobo on the run
catches boxcar outside town
two bits in pocket
*
whiskey o’whiskey
my fine friend from kentucky
kiss me o’kiss me
*
this listening post
at corner of nickel and dime
trading coins for thoughts
*
the wind fell silent
darkness enveloped the land
counting down from ten
*
stillness in the air
clouds hanging low, unmoving
gloam turns into night
*
map with dotted lines
leading to long lost treasures
adventure begins
*
She flew into town
With a pistol and bullet
To slay the dragon
*
batteries
never need charging
give me some
*
eyes rising
then dimples showing
your true smile
*
tiresome heart
anticipating
your sweet kiss
*
this quiet place
wishing and hoping
come inside
*
lift me up
find me a river
gone fishing
*
this wind talks
dances with curtains
draws you in
*
ride my bike
like i’m a teenager
keep me young
*
belonging
treated like family
acceptance
*
giving back
sharing memories
you’re my time
*
chocolate
tasty tiny kiss
in my mouth
*
begonia
hanging in basket
sweet yellow
*
birds whistling
flying through garden
and sprinkler
*
finding favor
natural spirits
this sweet love
*
decisions
time she is flying
come with me
*
from the dust
of this diverse earth
breeds new life
*
sands of time
repetitious trips
ageless mirrors
*
this china
wrapped in white linen
sunday brunch
*
trains roll on
throughout summer nights
down the line
*
in shadows
evening bringing change
we transform
*
hummingbird
hovering twilight
stay awhile
