A Monday fearĀ 

Nervousness wakes me 

A meeting with high pressure 

I’m lacking self-trust 

A #midnight #haiku

In this deep darkness
As this day transformed to new
This eerie silence?

Resisting the night

Darkness holds its own 

Rest is deceptively hard 

The street-light’s ally  

A Haiku Tribute To Aretha Franklin

“Aretha Franklin”
I honor her by saying
She’s earned my RESPECT

 

Aretha Franklin Sang Her Way Through America’s History. Her Passing Is the End of an Era

I Chose To Care

Though many don’t care 

And they pride themselves on that

I shall choose caring


I don’t mind the nerdly/Pollyanna label: I care. And I have no intention to change that. 

The Passage of Heartbeats

Each moment passing 

Fading into memory 

Waiting on sunlight
