A symphony plays
And my breath can, at last, slow
As a peace descends

12/4/2021 – the bamboo (a haiku)
Staff, raft, wall, or meal
Endless its purposes seem
Like its skyward reach
12/3/2021 – a haiku
The sky breathes warm wind
O’er the cold, colorless ground
Life rises once more
11/30/2021 – a haiku
A whisper deadens
Fades before it can be heard
Over the fresh snow
11/26/2021 – a haiku
Fair skies overhead
Cannot end the mind’s fierce storm
But they can calm it
11/23/2021 – a haiku
Trudging through the rain
Seeking a quiet refuge
Where the sun can shine
11/20/2021 – a haiku
Fragile glass shatters
And though its shape is no more
It has become sand
11/19/2021 – a haiku
The curling waves crash
Their foam sneaks between my toes
Then quickly recedes
11/15/2021 – a haiku
The smell of warm green
Meets my long-deadened senses
And I awaken
11/13/2021 – a haiku
The horizon nears
Full of wonder and promise
Like the night’s first star
