Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Sunlight Falls #Haiku

Now facing westwards

Glory bursting through the trees

Cool air satisfies

My aspirations
Continue with martial arts
For all of my life

My child prepares
The next journey
Of schooling
A single step
This new world

Transformation

Intimidates some
Others feel promise
Some blend them
Strange balance

What cowardice is
Letting fear define your life
Compassion stolen

Feeling exhausted

Just not sleeping very well

And I don’t know why

Boys training
Football season nears
Air cooler this morn
And wet fog upon glass
Autumn’s inevitability
Soon, so soon

Physical beauty
That lacks depth internally
Emptiest of gifts

Searching in the dark
You’ll find love hiding
In the corner
Impish grin upon
Its face

Massive ignorance
Even if we learn daily
So much left to learn

Driving office-wards
The driver’s disconnection
Obliviousness
