Love Stories

LOVE STORIES  (6 Haikus)

on one long    low   string
plumbing the depth of despair
violincello

like sharp pixie nails
teasing    hurting    sadistic
mascara    blue smoke

she says “I love you”
perfumed breath    mascara eyes
flask of red    red wine

both vulnerable
blue cigarette smoke curling
tears    empty bottle

gypsy violin
blue cigarette smoke curling
sans paroles

sorrow and despair?
no!    a D arpeggio
sun    flowers    health    life!

Daver, I am wondering why Irma said amusing to them. They are simply romantic. Let me go to your poems from earlier pages now and check one out! (you better work on getting thru to these young'uns. hahaha) Luv, andrea

These are GREAT, DAver. Are they new?? MY favorites were the first and the last. that first one actually I think is senryu (maybe most of them are) and it could well be in a magazine! My opinion for what it's worth! well, I be here long time, daver. me go eat lunch now. mucho hungry. LUv, andrea
