Staid
Absolutely as a mountain
Vast, ancient, complex
Unexplored by my eyes
Why?
Climb, I, your climate zones
Your staid steadies my feet
How am I to take nothing
This all you wish to give
Inhale a meditative Love
Exhale acceptance, heart
Come away untouched
Forbid!
Outpoured: A Haiku
I inhale for me
I exhale and pray for you
An awakened we
Skin: A Haiku
Continuous Coffee: A Haiku
Until eight-thirty
Else when my cup is emptied
I shall keep breathing
They Touched
I heard him begin to breathe deep
Even breaths
Slipping away into sleep
Lulled
Garrison Keillor on the radio
If there’s ever a doubt
That the universe exists
As much in us as we in it
Watch and listen
To a child
And a storyteller
At the same time
The I Love You Bird: A Haiku
That a burdened bird
Landed firm upon a branch
Proves that I can breathe
Currency
This second
Gone now
gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
Grab another
Hold dear all you now hold
hold, hold, hold, hold, hold
You’ve now cause to pause
But not your breath
breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Release the plaguing
Steal sight of this time’s shine
shine, shine, shine, shine, shine
fantastic notion
Tell them the air was once here
Say it was sweet and sustained life
Speak of white atop the heights
Sing how its wisdom did provide
Cry not for deep springs run dry
Pray now for life and depth elsewhere
Thanking Her Senses
The furnace having done its job
Basks now, contentedly
The boy asleep at daybreak’s glow
Breathes rhythmic, calming me
The feline drowned in blanket rolls
Purrs more, despite her cool
The dawn as pleased as she can be
Sits smiling, rosy fool
