With summer wind comes summer heat
And humid, heavy air
And all unpleasantries so meet
Stripping your patience bare

8/11/2021 – a haiku
Quiet flutes playing
A somber, peaceful lament
Calming fearful hearts

Why does the gull cry?
Why does it make the choice?
Why sail across the open sky
And raise so high its voice?
8/4/2021 – when you took my heart
When you took my heart
I knew within my soul
This was cosmic art
And I would be whole.

Such life there is for the taking
If one can but rise
7/30/2021 – alas that time is fleeting
Alas that time is fleeting
That moments pass us by
That each and every meeting
Is gone soon as it’s nigh
A brief letter to my heart
Alack, alas, I say to thee,
My stalwart, wizened friend
That you should be so tied to me
Until the bitter end
Sunburn
Such heat emits the summer sun
Upon my weary skin
Such woe betides th’unlucky one
Whose days are spent within
7/12/2021 – how hot the flames (a haiku)
The fire in my heart
Burns brightly for only one
But how hot the flames
7/9/2021
When shadows come and dance upon
The plain and quiet walls
I ‘magine myself away, gone
Till I don’t hear their calls
