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

This Haiku: Until I’m 99
Each and every time
I set sail and feel the sun
I’ll think of the moon
This Haiku: He Says
Rips in his clothing
Scratches, scrapes and no coat on
Shows the kids he’s tough
Why then does tender
Leak from his eyes if bugs cry
And creatures need care?
Did You see the stars?
Lo, I autographed their dust
as they dined on mine.
This Haiku: Most Formidable
I found when I find
me, they are not far behind.
I can’t help but cry.
My tears understand
that there’s no one to save me
so I save myself.
This Haiku: Redefining You
Oh, “You.” I see it
-what it is and what it was
and always will be.
She Loves You. It’s true.
My best, Ms. Enlightenment
-you’re a lovely girl.

This Haiku: What Works
Come here, I love you
Fortitude. Mildness. Light. Glee.
Strong of heart. Bright eyes.
This Haiku: superman’s signature
I know what I saw
in the phone booth -truth, justice.
I’m keeping his cape.
This Haiku: Go Long
Quiet please, the song
Do I hear the feet, the arms
The dance at the door
Oh, never you mind
I’ve studied the steps, practiced
Take my hand shadow
This Haiku: Determined
Adrenaline push
Blood takes its leave and the heart
Daydreams of the West
