Premium Member City Haikus
This garden city
Concrete skyscrapers loom;
Greenery punctuate

Speeds on wheels;
Electric commotion


Playground
For small kids and big;

Green!
Alive
on tall grass,
blithe, lithe, limber,
swaying long and lean
in their beachy masses.
The deadpan sand eavesdrops as
breezes wave blades like silk banners.
Whispers whir with emerald voices;
long-winded grass...

Who Me? Long.Winded2 ?
About what and where should I start?
What I hear comes from my heart.


Sometimes, he's a lover you see.
Sometimes, an uncle who jokes with me.
