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
11/18/2021 – the hourglass
The sands swirl bright
And the glass glistens
As with each dropping grain
A moment passes
11/17/2021
There is so much that I could say
Of thine deep, wisest eyes
But most that they bring forth the day:
Wherefore the sun doth rise?
Eyes, fathoms deep, and wise.

So oft in sleep dark thoughts abandon me
That in the night I find that I am free
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
11/12/2021
The road is long and lonesome
The prairies wide and green
But on it we can own some
Of the untainted scene
11/11/2021
I hear a whisper hiding in my mind
A quiet flick’ring seed of an idea
If only I could manage, now, to find
That which the seed would need to come to be
11/10/2021
Hoary frost coats the grasses
And a chill air bites my nose
But to see the roses bloom in your cheeks
Brings warmth to my heart
