A bee needs a flower,
as the flower the bee.
The moon needs its earth,
the earth it’s moon.
*
The seas need rain.
The rain needs the sea.
A soul needs love.
Love needs a soul.
*
I’ll always need you.
I hope you need me.
I need to be yours.
And you to be mine.
*
Needless to say –
Happy Valentine!

I like haiku-ing,
though I sometime think that for
every haiku,
.
a poem written,
for every poem a
story or maybe
.
a novel, but if
I wrote novels there’d be no
time to write haikus.

Being paranoid
I use invisible ink
Soured and scared sweet-less

Mothers, sisters, daughters and wives
A woman’s world giving life
Caring for all with love to share
To harm or strike, never dare
Dudes who do this I’ll share
Manliness is what you fear

Lost in the sand
Can’t walk, cannot stand
Vultures above awaiting meat
Flesh melts from my feet
.
Waves of heat ride the tide of sands
Blisters ooze muddies bloodied hands
Flesh burned, pores yearn, salt sweat dried
Sandpaper eyes, tears boil un-cried
.
Times far behind, miles are ahead
The only dread now’s not being dead
Visions blurred, yet a figure seen
The end is near, they’re in-between
.
Once blindingly lost, in a blink found
Screaming a last breath yet not a sound
Inviting any – enemy or friend
Kill or cure, any end

A person who shares
Their smile with the whole world once
Shall smile forever

Love at first sight can
Be glimpsing the future or
an untimely peak

Our love once wingless
Celestial adventure – then
Burned on re-entry

Instantaneous
Conclusions and solutions
Dissolve instantly

Deciphering codes nobody knows
Seeking worlds where no one goes
Seeing things that nobody sees
Charts the course, lives life, is free
Writes the wrongs with poetry

If an ass’s an ass
For not doing what they’re told
What’s an ass that does?

See No Evil
Eyes shut mask the fright
Eyes shut also hide the light
Eyes open see right
*
Hear No Evil
Noise surrounds, drowning
Screams, laughs trickle in-between
Ghostly silence lurks
*
Speak No Evil
Honesty’s the best
Policy – that’s why it’s best
I keep my mouth shut

T’was a chilled northern isle
Where grows only weed and rock
From those rocks many a wall grow
Walls that fill with pigs and sheep
They all eat well, weaving tales in their sleep

Warm Blue Steel
Irony is when
Might weighs more heavily than
Probability

Blind Double vision
A doppelgänger
Somewhere be, for half of us
Though most never see
*
Wheels and Axles
An end begins where
A beginning ends – middles
Always stay the same

What’s more successful?
Almost catching a tiger
Or eating a rat

Square pegs fit round holes
When diameter’s greater

The Hunger Haiku’s

Drips End

Precious little bean
Sweet with cream dream, water pure
Hot tonic to cure
~
Scrambled Emotions

Warm and firm to touch
Smooth curves conform in cold hands
Crack, beat add to heat

Lustful Awakening

Its length is lovely
Its girth is great – Goooood Morning!
Sausage on my plate

There was once a clown
Who ventured to town
Where teased and laughed at out-loud
The clown was sad, the clown was proud
Thus used his big shoes to kick-ass all-around

Trickle-down theory
works well, if you’re already
well above the waist

Tread paths no one knows
Go places that no one goes

Sink into the depths of darkness and despair
Swim towards a horizon that never ends there
Or sink into my arms and I’ll never feel fear
Swim into my mind and we’ll never have a care
~
We will sink or we will swim, together or apart
And tears of joy or of sadness will be a rivers start
Sink or swim, we must all, in life, love and in art
Rivers run hot and cold depending on their heart
~
Sink or swim together or afloat on a ring we’ll share
Our buoyancy’s preserved when hearts beat as a pair
Sink or swim together and an adventure we will chart
Please take my hand, share my love and our voyage will depart
~

Tread paths no one knows
Go places no one goes, find
