the white cat

autumn

sun interrupted

Pink and yellow walls
Fighting sullen metal skies.
Sun interrupted.

haiwinds haiku 2

Nuns, a flotilla
Tacking fearlessly windward,
Their black sails snapping.

howling shrieking wind

the normally proud palm trees

humbled and trembling

two haiku

From an endless sky
I pull down a floating moon
But cannot hold it.


This dreaming has passed,
Cloth of gold with words woven,
As I knew it must.

                                         ashes of roses

                                       floreate bohemia

                                      gilded and baroque

Herbal Highku

Rosemary fresh picked;
Pungent, vital, vigorous.
Scent punching the air.

Hands plunged amongst leaves,
Such freshmint memories burst forth
Upon my open palms.

Parsley, bruised and crushed.
A violent sacrifice
On the tongues'altar.
