Noel

Silent star-filled night.
Newborn hope envelopes earth,
flurries of pure joy.

Inhibition

A bashful rose bud
refused to open because
the tree was watching.

Sensational Haiku Wednesday–“End of Autumn”

End of Autumn

We mulched the roses,
covered the dahlias and raked.
Winter can come now.

Sensational Haiku Wednesday–The Ace of Cups

 

The Ace of Cups
A Haiku

You can swim freestyle,
surging through troubled waters,
taking charge of life.

I prefer to float,
gently borne upon a wave,
surrendered to grace.

Submitted to Sensational Haiku Wednesday: http://youknowthatblog.com/  This week’s theme is freestyle. Stop by and enjoy some great poetry a la haiku.

Sensational Haiku Wednesday–“Ascension”

Ascension
A Tribute to the Courage of the Miners in Chile
A Haiku

Painted steel bullet
shot from the bowels of the earth
dark path to freedom.

Buried deep inside
find treasures or transgressions
consciousness un-mined.

We are like miners
thoughts inching toward the surface
blinded by light.

Sensational Haiku Wednesday–Waves

Two Haikus, two kinds of waves:

Trying to Forget
A Haiku

Waves sweep onto shore,
grasp my memories and flee,
drag them to the depths.

Home from War
A Haiku

The child stood waving.
Who is this man called daddy?
Why is he crying?

Squirrel-gatherer/
hoards his stash of plump acorns,
/longs to eat, but waits. 

Autumn winds promise
/winter will be bitter cold,
/seasons on the edge.
