Tomorrow’s Shadows
Shadows of today
Precede tomorrow’s darkest clouds
Silhouettes of doom

Hoot, listen and learn
The old wise owl said sternly
Hoot, then he adjourned

My Gallery (a Haiku)
Her craft-work shines on
Overseeing our dream times
In my world of rhyme

Winter Snails (a Haiku)
Autumn leaves did fall
A winter sun warms our souls
Snails renew their trail

Apple blossom and white lilies are flowers that symbolize peace, but we need more than nature’s beautiful flowers to set the white doves free …
White Flowers (a Haiku)
May we all see peace
Bloom beyond the seasonal
Lilies and blossom

I walk pass today
Remembering yesterday
Where is tomorrow?

Isolation time
In the empty house of rhyme
Outside the sun shines

Inside (a Haiku)
Within nothingness
Asleep in a ghostly nest
There lurks loneliness

“The reason why the universe is eternal is that it does not live for itself; it gives life to others as it transforms.” ― Lao Tzu
Quietly (a Haiku)
Time moves silently
Soundless is our universe
Infinite and bright
