Bond & Seek

an unlikely pair
this unbroken connection
through childhood trials,

and broken hearts, a cherished
gift, more than I could ask for

Snow Storm – A Cherita

footprints in the snow

trails lead to water’s edge
all drawn to tumbling, bubbling melody

on the banks of the creek
remnants of a snow storm..
encrusted in ice

For Carpe Diem Haiku : A Cherita

Poem

a scene evokes a thought –

a kernel of a poem

pausing to jot something down –

shadow of a poem

enduring odd stares as I come back –

caught in the moment

grabbing a poem by the tail before it dissipates –

the birth of a poem

at creek’s edge
coat of winter ice
chips slowly

Last Day

cloud of crows
blacken winter sky –
his last day

2

huge cloud of ravens
has blacken late winter sky –
ashes to ashes
