This Haiku: Certain

That smile gives this smile
pause. But then, without warning,
cause -to burst forth loud.

This Haiku: I Quit Coffee

In the early morn’
I like to hang off the edge
And possibly fall

All that might be done.
There is so much isn’t there?
What wins hearts: hold hands.

Better than to be
In the quiet, open air
Nothing Nothing Yes

I pictured you in warrior paint
Your bright eyes shining through
Believing in me

Blended. Into One.
Effortless. They need not reach.
Nothing. Lest they touch.

at Lake Michigan; Milwaukee, WI

There they go again
Talking on and on and on
Fire and oxygen

I know how you like
To play with words -mix meanings
Throw prose to the wind

You know how I like
To play with toys -blocks, hard balls
Throw them sometimes too

We won’t endeavor
To play with shapes -hearts, diamonds
And I’ll hold my toys

Each and every time
I set sail and feel the sun
I’ll think of the moon

She grants gravity
Yields what you don’t know to ask
Guides when you won’t see
