Waves of green
and blue wash over the sky
as the night grows colder.

February 28, 2012 Haiku #58

And in a moment
a wish was made
and granted.

February 27, 2012 Haiku #57

Sky as clear as glass
Stars as bright as our sun.
Hers is always the brightest.

February 26, 2012 Haiku #56

Central Illinois Weather:
one day you're twenty and snowing
the next you're sixty.

February 25, 2012 Haiku #55

And the darkness
evades a little longer
with each day.

February 24, 2012 Haiku #54

And the spark ignites
the flame
dancing in a slow rhythm.

February 23, 2012 Haiku #53

Mottled gray pigeon
Perching
Waiting patiently for bread crumbs.

February 22, 2012 Haiku #52

Floating iridescence
shatters like glass
in my hand.

February 21, 2012 Haiku #51

The trees
dancing in the wind
leaves tangled like Rapunzel's hair.

February 20, 2012 Haku #50

Soft flutter of eyelashes
against a pale cheek.
An eye opens.

February 19, 2012 Haiku #49

And today is the day
the last day
and the first.

February 18, 2012 Haiku #48

My stomach does a flip
and then a twist, and then knots
whenever you're near.

February 17, 2012 Haiku #47

Little blinking lights
guide my pathway in the dark.
Then go dark again.

February 16, 2012 Haiku 46

Rub salt in the wound
Let it sting and burn and bleed
It cannot be fixed.

February 15, 2012 Haiku #45

Still your lying tongue:
you know not of what you speak.
Erase this from your mind.

February 14, 2012 Haiku #44

Lightly falling snow
dissipating as it hits the ground
Winter is extinct.

February 13, 2012 Haiku #43

Whispers in the halls
hushed;
stop echoing nonsense.

February 12, 2012 Haiku #43

Her silver tears
reflect on the still pond
as a howl shatters silence.

February 11, 2012 Haiku #42

Swirling snow catches
on pale skin
burying yesterday's memories.

February 10, 2012 Haiku #41

When did we jump the shark?
I can't even remember.
I miss you.
