We Keep Hope
Winter and alone
Unbearable uncertainty
God what will you do
When wind forces its way to the door
Carrying icy-cold information
Crystalizing shut
The truth after all
There’s no school today
Hooray
Along: A Haiku
This cold winter day
Will you drive us to the sun
Your hand on my knee
Proud
In the dead of Winter
Long
After the artificial electric
The sound of sung merriment
Now fallen
Let the shine on my bare shoulders
Reflect the distant auroras
And hold the light
From your eyes
Summer In Winter
Who told you?
Who said it should’ve been so?
The looming liar lurking?
A voice from the mount’?
Would that there’d been!
Oh that there’d be!
What harm would befall to let it all go?
And exclaim to the the everlasting, omnipresent silence:
There’s ink to the contrary;
Screaming loud and clear.
So my skin -if none else- must tell the truth, dear.
My hand, the fall, forced.
A Haiku: Passé
Fall sat on fences
and dragged its feet home. Bring on
the white, wint’ry storm.Spring sought my soul soaked
and wants my demise. Kiss me
you blue Summer skies.
Winter in May
The shadows of somebody
Who must have cast them
And the spell I am under
Are all, I see
Doomed to dance and die
As my did my flowers
From Winter in May
To Winter: A Haiku
You say it’s a sigh
I see it as surrender
Go not back to sleep
Linger Winter
And it’s then
That I’m forced
To ask myself
Of what consequence is it to me
That winter wishes to linger
While elsewhere bares its shoulders
As I consider whether to be pained
By pinstripes wider than these
Or the loss of the starboard side’s oar
I recall
The daffodils that dance each morning
The strong Challenger on the horizon
The Saturday swims with a mermaid
Elsewhere, bare your shoulders
