HAIKUS

your laughter
sour sardines in my head
Me hablo Ingles

there's the beat
face silhouettes
frosted light

THE WORD OF THE DAY

A new word for every day
a sound to keep the thoughts at bay
my choice to chase the dogs away
and run
I will
to kiss the sun
Embrace the life of now and then, body suits
and beauty therein - Today
is TRAJECTORY
to the freedom space above the clouds
flown on the lift force of love and affirmation to
answer the distant call from the new horizon

and I see myself there in time
for happy hour
captured by the truth
of you and me and
unity and the path (of trajectory) is the goal
the journey is all
for the strength of my soul
and the joy of "GO!"

LIVE!!!! that is all that is required.

VERNA

While at work attending to a guest
I see the whole world
Bursting with microcosmic honesty
all wrapped up amidst her wrinkles
and shining out her eyes

with a piercing truth a lifetime
in a moment lost at sea
I offer her a menu
She shares some buoyancy




I love how in E.E. Cummings poems you get two for the price of one... three even, you can read it without the parenthesis, you can read it with, and you can even read only the parenthesis...

vilmorin wrote a poem about flowers from an anoymous giver... using the imagery of footsteps in the sand as an analogy for love lost, love hoped for... flowers flung from the parenthesis of a step she says...

I wish there was no sickness or death in the world. here's love to my sister in the hospital and my mom nearing the end of her autumn.

and to all my enemies and friends too.
