This Haiku: Good Company

For a soft spirit
I will search the world over
I’ll start with inside

This Haiku: A Rock I Know

Here’s one shining truth:
You love one million percent
You’ve done it all right

This another day
Of wandering, wondering
Knowing I can’t know

I’m learning to walk
like you -but only like me,
with your gentle strut.

8am unglued
Connect my dots together
And steal my breath back

I pierced tender light
Sat indignant, watched it bleed
Yet you washed my feet

My heart beat convicts
My mind bows first, then repents
I ran to tell you

I am gently coaxed
From that river where my heart
Seems to need to plunge

Each day filled with peace
and freedom from fear, if not
filled with sweet quiet.

I never compete
There’s no need -none can compare
I was born First Chair

I’d deemed the song done.
Dimmed the House lights. Then you stepped
to the podium.
