Fuzzy borders
Between onomatopoeia
And exclamations
winter moonlight
slips through louvered blinds -
reading between the lines

morn drizzles--
falling on daffodils
murky-sweet scent
No good food, water,
Fresh environment, feelings
But weapons all kinds.
wind
lifes breath...
sighing
dressed in queen anne's lace
chrysanthemums spray baby breath
awaken earth's vase

LOVES SONG TO YOU ABOUT TOMORROW
Plant dreams of me on feath’ry pillows
Dancing thru thorns—we blossom
Dawn into periwinkle glory
There were two loud thumps
at the back sliding glass door.
God plays Angry Birds?
Modern Haiku
Wet dog
Looks into a rain pool
Contemplative
When it rains
Cats sleep on window sills
Pensive mice
Meditative rain
Gently descends
In September
Introspective
Mountain village
In the mist
