Walk first, if you must
Though eyes downcast, chin up, love
Always, your chin up

Ante Meridiem Musings
How dare I contrast
Confuse
Or compare
The gorgeous rhythm of rain
Upon this corner of the world
Stirring my morningtimes now
With predawn’s blessed birdsong
Celebrating a coming sun
Inspiring my risings back then
Have they not both awakened me
Gloriously
Miraculously
Houdini
No knowing, anymore
No trusting
Houdini at the helm
While, wide-eyed and wondering
We write
Vaya: A Haiku
That bird’s got a song
Man, he’s gonna sing today
Open your window
Backyard Blackbird: A Haiku
Slow-motion moment
Becomes that magic minute
Through sunlit feathers
actual bird
little nest
little magpie
little by little
Fall then Fly
big fear
big when-why
bigger and bigger
Leave the Lie
Blot: A Haiku
Soaring, swooping thing
You’re asking me to notice
Yet distracting me
How Big
Why will I never meet the scars, the stars I’d wished to kiss
The puzzle pieces I knew I could fit together, if given a lifetime
Why will my fingers never fumble and finally find the picture of you
How big the whole of you, the hole left in me
Flight Risk: A Haiku
Last eve’ I almost
Felt the musings of my heart
Venture from my lips!
a fortiori
Why the grown hawk would struggle on
The wind
I cannot know
I've seen it, though
And desiring
To help things along for regalness sake
I reached up on high
In prayer
To see burden lifted, compass-mark found
