Tanka Poems

Like an old, familiar song

Observation #3 (Pencil)

A moment of mindfulness

Setting Sun

Haibun

The sun sets over the horizon, sending a tangerine glow across the sky. Waves roll in a lazy tempo…

In My Arms

Again

In my arms again
Craving, begging, heart yearning
Never to let go

Sunkissed

A Haiku

sunkissed horizon
seafoam stroking sandy shore
cleansing my spirit

The Maple

A Haiku

Its roots curve and spin
The maple with singing leaves
This is where we hear

Observation #10 (Pen)

A moment of mindfulness

Haiku Poetry

All I Want To Be

Is in your arms

I Don’t Think She Knows

A haiku

I don’t think she knows
She’s the straw that stirs my drink
I’m very thirsty
