Perseus & Me: A Haiku
Closed my eyes to see
Broad daylight, which God ordained
That mystified me
Sky & Earth: A Haiku
I see clearly now
These clouds are what they will be
And I am ageless
Universe Orator
Space
The far out there we strive to delve into
The mired-down terra here we call home
Be brave, if you will
Act to master the wherefore
Despite arms never long enough
Lousy, camera-fumbling hands
Fingers that can’t match the shutter speed
To touch what the eyes so beautifully see
To hold that light reflecting
From the Universe Orator
Still, we of mortal’s strength
With small or great faith
Must reach celestial-ward
Look up
Cry out
Be healed
Original Thought Credit: “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
-2 Chronicles 7:14
Sky Eye
You would say, “I see you”
I’d say, “How absurd”
You would tell me to look close
InBetweenEachWord
I, with human heart and soul
Need enlightened news
You, with your electric eye
Have nothing to lose
Kinetic
We look ahead at sixty now
The gander, grace-filled
The graceful goose
Silvery fire, calm
Wondrous!
So we wait and keep walking
Flying, when we’re able
But never again bewildered
If we would not be this
We could not be that
Original thought credit: Ms. Joni Mitchell; “Both Sides Now”
Crushed
Busy, busy, boy in red
But I’m swifter still
Get my demise in your head
Think to be my pill
Do you dream I’ll give my all
To your damnedest plan
This Dark Friday caused your fall
My The Great I Am
Saw Nothing: Another Haiku
One step then the next
Open your eyes and fret not
Go about the day
Hear, See, Act
Gentle of course, and incredulous
I’d ask them
With my eyes
To consider
With their ears
Now
If, having heard
Do they see
Linen in my clutches
Lace dangling from my left
And as I drop it down
Do they move
To run and rescue and reclaim
What is ours
See This
In the new of each day
In the impossibly early
Traffic-lights-still-blinking hour
If you dare with me
Pick up the grain of sand that represents some hope
Place it in a place not far
With goal to keep belief’s door
Ajar
Make the wish that others see to do the same
Tomorrow, tonight you’ll say,
Invite the ocean
