This is a selection of Haiku style poems I’ve written, many of the dual poems have a third poem hidden through the highlighted words.
Frost, Float ~ 2018
Above all your ice
Your frozen crown tilts one side
As smug frost collides
Hopeless in this moat
Negative waves jerk my rope
Good thoughts never float
Hope, Halo ~ 2018
Last year’s shipment of
All our hope arrived too late
In these sunken boats
Your halo hangs low
Bending on white feathered wings
Burning hearts below
Sun, Rain ~ 2018
Wasting summer sun
Winter’s always hungover
She drinks October
May’s rain drowns all drought
Showering the land in drops
She loves God's puddles
Dressed, Dreams ~ 2018
Rise, shine - thank you light
Get up, get dressed - back to bed
No - I’m not ready
Intense when beeping
Alarm knows I'm still sleeping
Barging into dreams
Montague, Mirror ~ 2018
This poison you left
Must mean I’m a Montague
Not a Capulet
I hate what I see
My mirror glares back equally
Juliet agrees
Mutiny, Mocking ~ 2018
She can't choose between
A terrible mutiny
Sailing without me
Aboard my small ship
Two friends both can't be captains
Stand fast, stop mocking
Murky, Moonlight ~ 2018
Trapped in Shadowland
Nightmares infest this village
A murky king reigns
Marching to Moonlight
Flames burst from a frightened mob
As the roofs ignite
Plume, Prattle ~ 2018
Pajamas' pink plume
Perky pairs proudly protrude
Publicly perfect
Projecting prim poise
Privately psycho prattle
Perverted poet
Christmas, Cookies ~ 2018
Children at their best
Pretending sleep for Christmas
Beneath snow packed roofs
From their hearth flakes fall
Upon plates of warm cookies
Scent blankets the home
Crumpled ~ 2019
petal tumbles down
comforting his crumpled ground
beauty stems from her
Varied (Haiga) ~ 2019
stirred against the stream faith sways - so often varied grasping for belief
Green With Envy (Haiga-Senryu) ~ 2019
these leaves sparkling green do not mean what they used to flower's spoken for
Shells (Haiga-Senryu) ~ 2019
sound crazed hatching tells of a nest sporting new shells dragon awakens
Worms (Haiga-Senryu) ~ 2019
a call bluffing wild worms inching a creepy dive bound for her apple
Just A Wish (Haiga) ~ 2019
This momentous wish
Chock-full of thirst and intent
Was stealing a kiss
Hollow Void (Haibun-Haiga) ~ 2019
Spreading void, ill light Match's neglect waxes high As hollow wick dries
Salting (Haiga-Senryu) ~ 2019
even oceans break
their fears lashing out in pain
tears salting warm waves
Game Set Fire (Haiga-Senryu) ~ 2019
seeking victory
she hounds me across the board
weeping, my mount lies
