This Haiku: I Love This Hat

Far too many days
Hearing far too many “No’s”
But I’ll always stay

This Haiku: Be Aware

You smell so spicy
I will savor you slowly
You’ll shout to the sun

It knows all of me.
I hear it in my air. Why?
That song’s a fighter.

I’ll step in the ring.
Hoping our song together
will gain us the win.

Grant me an ocean
A sea
A lake
A pond
A river
A fountain
Lend me a coin
I’ll wish to stay swimming

Regardless of if
it’s my friend or my foe, I
must make peace in it.

Start with a simple
hello. Inhale. Exhale. Smile.
End deeply in love.

Always at breakfast
Let’s look down at our instep
And see perfection

Our hearts leap and spy
On the floor, near the table
The blessed red capes

I the child
I the mother
I the wild
I the struggler

Don’t project
Yourself onto me
I will be
What I’m meant to be

I the fire
You the ember
I love deeply
You.

All night the candle
Burned bright, flickering, hoping
For tea in the morn’

Don’t you dare duck out
Before eternity’s done
These paths beg our hands
