Selected Haiku

breezes sweeping
my hair about my face,
still autumn moon
|
|
| |
last dance—
not wanting to let go
long after the music stops
|
night sounds—
two lovers snuggled closer
against the chill
|
|
| |
Childhood pictures:
the lock of hair
that never did stay down
|
snow melting from his hair
curled
beside the fire
My
snow angel
|
|
| |
Tankini pieces scattered
on the dressing room floor—
Not this one either
|
ice and snow swirling about
yet he never minds—
the bronze man
|
|
| |
sun beating
on my back—
the sprinkler’s hiss
|
the man from Germany –
watching his back
I see my father
|
|
| |
after the fight—
rain pattering
on the porch steps
