The Learned No: A Haiku

Weeping. Deep mourning.
Joy. Thrill. Love. All fading now.
What rollercoaster?

Restless Legs: A Haiku

Sweet Sleep will you come
The way before you sure would
Spilling in my night

“A Litigator
Takes On An Alligator
The Pair Become Friends”

If ever dance
Promise you’ll never be far
This earth’s closest Star

Wind at my window
Awakening the wide wild
In me Mom tell him

Mercy please be loud
Else I’ve no way of knowing
I’ll listen for you

There were once wings there

Now, strong, scarred shoulders are there

Yet feathers sprout there

How shall he bid her
Trumpeted Proclamation
To ask for her hand

Will I miss the pain
That tale remains to be told
I won’t miss the cold

All that I’ve expressed

Is as singing to the wind

Beauty gone somewhere
