After That

Then we'll cut that tree down

Use the wood to make a boat

Take it out to sea and stay afloat

Allow the sounds of the mermaids 

To abound around us

Oh Can We

Let's carve our initials into a tree

At the local playground

Then the two year olds will understand 

What true love is really

Haiku 12/30

Moles are blind to what's 

In front of them, but can smell

Out their destiny 

Scampering up a 


Birch goes a tiny squirrel


Off to his date

Haiku 12/18

Every single cloud

Seems to resemble her face

Daydreams are nightmares

Walls

Inside there's  a wall too tall, that I've built

It encases all places of my heart

Forever holding the anger 

I've felt

And keeping those feeling there is an art

Haiku 12/17

The canary just

Croaked and no one is worried

What happened to hope?

Haiku128

Cold wind seems to cut

Through the wintry atmosphere

Please, do take a slice

Haiku 12/8

Anniversary


So much done and left undone


Nothing is the same

Important

It's important 

For us all to

Pray. Sit. Shit. And think.

Even for the monsters under our beds

Haiku 11/27

Many a tree have

Stripped down and yet they still feel

Unseen to the world

Forest floors on top 

Of one another, viny

Elevator grows

Haiku 11/8

Prairie dog pops his 

Head up, looking both ways twice

Where have his friends gone?

Haiku 11/6

Piggies cut open

People want to share their guts

Simply scared of cuts

Understand

It's true, see

That after

I experience laughter 

With you 

It's been eternity 

Haiku 11/4

Please don't bring me down

My head is up in the clouds

And it never rains

Ostrich hides her head

Chameleon changes color

Who are we today

Sometime

Inevitably, happiness lies 

between a rock and a hard place.

We all have to face that place.

Eventually

Haiku 10/29

No other mammal

Is able to love and die

In the same moment

Haiku 10/25

I even cry in

My dreams now. Is no place safe

To run wild and free

Trees are off to bed

With the stars awakening 

And the moon glowing

My Pet

After quite a lot of thought 

I got rid of my pet rock 

Why would I 

Do such a thing as that

Regardless I won't look back

Sometimes I feel big

Sometimes I feel small

I feel it all

Haiku 10/20

Hear the crickets chat

Listen to the lovers laugh

Sit and enjoy

Haiku 10/3

Thinking pondering

Of what? Of whom? Questions with

Quick fading answers 

It's hard

It's hard to find the way to say 

What's on your mind this very day

Or second or minute 

This moment can't let it 

Pass on by

Without a proper goodbye

Seen As

No one wants to be seen as a zero

Does everyone want to be a hero?

If this is for you tightly tie the cape

Once you pick up your wings there's no escape.

Haiku 9/9

There is much magic 

In the world, we forget  that

It is in our hands

Morning

Good morning Mr. Sun 

What a day it'll be

Good morning lil' Birdie 

Indeed the world is already happy

Good morning O God

Help us to be kind to everyone 

They are

See roses are 

quite possibly as red as

My cheeks when you waltz past

And violets are very close to the

Deep blue oceans that lie in 

Each eye of yours 

Truly, something else

Need to Say

Sometimes there's a need to 

Say something about the moment

Until the joy is seen through

Then it is all but evident 

Haiku 9/6

A calming way to

Awake is with the crisp air 

And the drips of rain 

Pushing Up

Now I know she's pushing up daises 

But she still makes me go crazy 

More than her heart -wise

More than her warm smile

More than her blue eyes

Even her singing from the shower

It was the compassion

That is still ringing 

Before and after her hour 

Reflection

It's quite a sensation 

When in the duration of a day

Everything tends to reflect 

Off her reflection 

No one wants to 

close then their eyes 

Even for a fraction

Haiku 8/26

The mind is a meal

Table, all must be in the 

right place to face peace

Tear

Give me the benefit of shedding this tear

A little secret this is for you dear 

Trying to hold it together 

That we'll never be holding each other 

It's harder than it appears

Realist

the realist ones are the craziest because they can't contain themselves knowing what it is to truly breathe 

Think of Me

Will she ever know? 

What's it's like to be with me.

To be in like with me. 

I know it's childish to think so selfish.

Even still I question 

If she ever thinks of me

What does she see?

Isn't

If love isn't allowed to abound 

We only allow hatred to go around

And that only closes the door for 

Any peace to be found

Afloat

Lord save me from this sinking boat
 I’ve been trying to stay afloat 


But you see everyone is swimming against me

Pass

I pass the peace your way 

And send some love to you today

Don't know what's happened with the hand of humanity. I wonder if they lost touch with reality

Until I put the clues together to solve the mystery 

I pass the peace your way

And send some love to you today 

A Start

The middle of nowhere is scary

With the cornfield to the left

Children with pitchforks on the right

You're barely anyplace at all.

Except somewhere

And that's a good point to start

Missing Out

With the sun shining in
The day is far from being done
Open up your body to what today may be all about
Otherwise the gift of here and now will slip through
And you'll be left
Missing Out

Misunderstood

Tip of the hat
to that
Big Foot
isn’t wiggedy wack
Just a misunderstood being
Never gave anyone lip
He possesses a heart and feelings
But most run in fear if he ever comes near
Why?
Save the jokes
He is sincere when he gives a good morning wave

Dreams

It seems that I have I've discovered a wonder.
The time I ponder on my dreams is useless.
I can only reap the benefits when I sleep so this lesson I must keep.
Dreams are a portal to the answers of questions  unable to solve while awake.

Conductor

The Conductor raises His wand,
Pauses for contemplation
Swish of the hand and the land
Is without explanation

Out of Habit

I developed a habit of not looking at the ones I love in the eyes. Because see I once loved a friend so much I stop looking her in the eyes, so I'd never have to see her go.  In the end it didn't do me better for that friend left without a sound. Now my eyes look all around for her but they might as well be blind for her because they come up blank. I fear the same event will repeat itself. This is why I have a difficult time looking people in the eye when I become close to them. It's out of habit you see I fear they'll leave too soon, without a trace. I can't embrace the thought of forgetting another face.

Bowl O's

This morning’s bowl of Cheerios was unbearable
Who knows if they were stale or the soy milk was cold
They floated maniacally, soaking up all that was around them
Caking on the blandest expression
Making sure to be overly soggy.
Bastards.

Rythm

It creates a steady rhythm
Up and down
Then Back around
Up and down
Then back around
Up and down
Then back around.
This steady rhythm increases as the clouds transform
from  daylight to spotlight.
Everything seems to cease
Problems Troubles Worries
float into the rhythm.
Now it’s just the Up and down
As the rhythm fades out
through the hands
Making it float into the rhythm

Day

A new God given Day
Filled with broken buckets that have been spilling over with
endless possibilities of adventures to be embarked upon
A new God given Day

Say She Like

 Say she like Diamonds in the sky, nope
No need for a telescope to see the crystals in the sky
that she makes sparkle when the sunrise

When you Jump

Make sure to breathe
before
You jump into the stars
else
You suffocate from those trying
to
Grab onto your success

Fishing

Fishing for dreams
Seems mere triviality
For here reality
Bobs up and down continually
While the line shivers in
the atmosphere,
endlessly.

We are

Morosely, we are Mostly
Silent Silhouettes
Slipping
From leak to leak
Gasping
for an air of approval
from
Any
One
Thing

Glowing eyes
Beneath the sink
Makes one think
Why the trash
is wearing a  disguise
