Blossoms bursting forth
Another awakening
The sleepers awake

Mortality
Our mortality
Brutally enforced mandate
The demands of time
Cruel Motivations
Driven forwards
Grinding desire
For perfection
Fearful, knowing
Against logic
Your wretched
Miserable infliction
Upon humanity
Only cured by
Self destruction
Early Cherry Blossoms
Movement calmly slows
This winter’s gently calm sun.
New cherry blossoms
Tribute to Leonard Nimoy
A humble, heartfelt tribute to a major figure in my life. I’ve always wanted to be Spock.
Amongst the stars
My youth passionately dreamt.
Live long and prosper.
Hand Crafted
Look upon roiling edges,
This vertigo inducing
Abyss of my own undoing.
Crafted by my own hands,
This yawning chasm, dug
By each act of selfish ambition.
A billion small motions.
To Wash
Deep into my heart
Wash away the deep set pain
Unburden my path
Considering Time
Strange, just sitting here,
Images demanding time
Life flittering by
Today’s Haiku Challenge
Exposing sadness
Uncomfortable, sometimes
Yet not a sickness.
Amidst The Storm
Go into the wind
Feeling storm and rainy mist
Hearkening spring time
