Haiku
I Climb
Step by step I climb
Steadily walking my path
Time is flying fast
“If You Wait”
If letters spell out words, son
You chose to put them in order, didn’t you
From the meaning, the moment you tried to take me on
From the air to the room A bed that I own
And can you give me everything,
Everything, everything
Cos I can’t give you anything
And if you wait, if you wait I will trust in time that we will meet again
If you wait
I will trust in time that we will meet again

Haiku:
Family
A hive awaits me
My Philadelphian tree
Branches will rejoice

Haiku
The Forest
Tunnel grows wider
Walking out of the forest
The light glows brighter
“All The World Is Green”
The face forgives the mirror
The worm forgives the plow
The questions begs the answer
Can you forgive me somehow?
Maybe when our story’s over
We’ll go where it’s always spring
The band is playing our song again
And all the world is green
Pretend that you owe me nothing
And all the world is green
We can bring back the old days again
And all the world is green
The moon is yellow silver
Oh, the things that summer brings
It’s a love you’d kill for
And all the world is green
He is balancing a diamond
On a blade of grass
The dew will settle on our graves
When all the world is green

Haiku:
The Sun
The fiery sun burns
Bitumen melts underfoot
Tomatoes glow red

Haiku:
A Street Festival
Festa of nations
Multicultural Colours
Together and free

Haiku:
Shelter
Shady under me
I’m a hospital Pine tree
A bench seat for three

A Haiku
Coastal
A strong coastal wind
Blowing sand across bare dunes
Vegetation gone

I would like to thank Christine Bolton of “Poetry for healing” for her prompt and inspiration, for me to write this Haiku. Please Click >> Here. To look at her glorious site and poems
January
Cloudless happy days
Sunlight kisses everything
Feeling warm within
