Tonight’s Haiku: Life’s Complexities
Life’s complexities
Tranquility’s opposite
Argued with moonlight
A Haiku In Honor Of Martin Luther King
Compassion’s pathway
Facing down rage, cruelty, fear
For a gold future
Reflecting From Stone
Staring at myself
Wetted marble captures me
As I seek balance
If you’ve been to Seattle’s Pacific Science Center, you’ve probably noticed the marble sphere balanced upon water. A perfect equilibrium which allows for an ease of motion; it can be shifted with one hand.
Poetry’s Power
Once I was told
Poetry’s power
Comes from framing
Life so uniquely
That people see
Truths they’re hiding from
Experimenting with using the graphic to separate my prose from the poem. What do you think?

A Haiku As I Listen To Satie
Listening to Satie
These binary colored keys
Dancing summer light
I always envision ImImpressionistic artists as I Lilisten to Satie. Just seems so perfect. Like Bach in cathedrals.
Success leaves clues: I seek them
Always keep growing
Study other’s successes
Yes, success leaves clues
I refuse to stagnate. I seek growth.
Forward Focused
I now face forwards
Into tomorrow’s sunlight
Working together
A piece of my life’s mission: bring people together.
A Rainy Evening Haiku
Moonlight hides from me
Behind the rain laden clouds
Spots on my glasses
