This Haiku: In The Thick

The night it cleanses
And welcomes the coming light
Catch it as it falls

Artist Credit: Tiger R., at age 2

This Haiku: Pierce Me

Assured of its love
The big dipper, there, stared back
I believed its eyes

also grasp
my arm
that grasps
your arm
as these promises are one.

No hamlet, no town
Shall escape This Kind of light
Nor do they wish to

Artist Credit: Tiger R., age 6

A good morning dance
With the warm-electric one
Who soaks in this life

For a distraction
I iron and wash dishes
Flowers in my hair

To be and to have
The friend who knows from afar
And abides with you

Vow you’ll not walk Earth
Suff’ring the ordinary
You’re meant for the sky

How you observe time.
What on Earth is more sublime?
By your side. Your side

If your tears should come
Find my tears at the ready
To soften the fall
