Haiku: December 30, 2023

I ponder my past,

stepping to the future while

living out this day.  

Haiku: December 23, 2023

I live out this day

with my dreams of tomorrow.

I pray to do good. 

Haiku: December 16, 2023

I have lost so much,

and I will lose so much more,

yet hope is not lost. 

Haiku: December 9, 2023

Bells ring around me.

This morning's light rises new.

Life and hope remain.

Haiku: December 2, 2023

I close out this year

and begin with hope, to love

both God and myself. 

Haiku: November 25, 2023

I regret having

lavished love on one who crushed

my then open heart. 

Haiku: November 18, 2023

Nervous. Unstable.

That is how I'm around you,

when your eyes meet mine. 

Haiku: November 11, 2023

Though my light is small,

in the midst of this Darkness

it guides me onward.

Haiku: November 4, 2023

I sink all my ships

to force myself to my fate.

Fearful, yet with hope.

Haiku: October 28, 2023

I call out your name

in the rising of the day

and the dark of night.

Haiku: October 21, 2023

The air is now crisp.

Autumn enters gracefully.

Golden shades abound. 

Haiku: October 14, 2023

Smiles are a great joy.

One of life's blessings? To share 

Laughter all around.

Haiku: October 7, 2023

Let this day not fade.

Embrace every touch of joy

crossing before you. 

Haiku: September 30, 2023

I repeat myself.

My whispers of love to you

fade into the night. 

Haiku: September 23, 2023

I can't remember

the joyful dreams of my youth.

Please God, bring them back. 

Haiku: September 16, 2023

I cast a quick glance

at the beauty of your form.

Won't you meet my gaze?

Haiku: September 9, 2023

I have been made small

by others, but I need not

keep myself that way.

Haiku: September 2, 2023

I still dream of you.

At night the thrill of your touch

Is everlasting. 

Haiku: August 26, 2023

Regrets I carry

are lost in your gentle love

which brings my heart peace.

 

Haiku: August 19, 2023

How can I seduce

one whose former flame's photo

is their wallpaper?  

Haiku: August 12, 2023

Sing, my Sorceress,

Your spell of love upon me.

I submit softly.

Haiku: August 5, 2023

Am I forgiven?

Can you feel undying love

on those golden roads?

 

Haiku: July 29, 2023

This day I feel lost.

Your voice remains in my heart.

Your smile stays with me.

Haiku: July 22, 2023

When I speak your name

our brief moment lives again.  

Your love still haunts me.

Haiku: July 15, 2023

My hands cross your cheeks.

The senses are satisfied

and then I awake. 

Haiku: July 8, 2023

Could my broken heart

be what can rescue my soul

and lead to True Love? 

Haiku: July 1, 2023

When the one I love

kissed another tenderly,

I saw my dream die. 

Haiku: June 24, 2023

Predawn air is crisp.

The scent of sunrise is sweet.

Simple things, God's Gift.

Haiku: June 17, 2023

Is it wrong for me

to dream of your perfect form

wrapped all around me? 

Haiku: June 10, 2023

Trees stretch to Heaven.

The roots give them strength to try.

God help the rootless.

Haiku: June 3, 2023

Passion entwined us.

A streetlamp witnessed our kiss.

Then you ran away.

Haiku: May 27, 2023

I dream of your eyes.

Pillows make for poor lovers.

Desire haunts me. 

Haiku: May 20, 2023

Sunrise surprised me.

I wore Mom's old sunglasses.

My grief does not die.
