caress

branches' end
tender new leaves shivering
winter caress

waiting

so here we are
waiting for a spark to fly
waiting for the flames

.. but waiting without action
.. is like praying .. without faith

some emotion

fervently breathless
anxiety ... nervousness
energy burst ... ahhhh
.
it has pounced upon my skin
I just have to let it in!

Winter Night Truncated Klein Bottle Haiku

winter night

greyish clouds in blackest sky
halos of moonlight
hooting owls cast their shadows
rustling leaves say they have left
their calls become faint
dropping temperatures bring frost
frost turns to ice on cars
ice blocks ones' vision
dizzying snowfall appears
each flake is lost in the fall
winter night takes hold
again

Camelot - 2

Camelot thinking
only purity survives
in the distance ... lies

Camelot

without Camelot
the driving force is power
desire to control

synanthy

usually separate
together for this moment
existence questioned

anger senryu

just some hushed voices
cacophony of anger
playing piano

accented sounds bruise the air
relief arrives in silence
