mother earth (shadorma)
mountains look
like nosy neighbors
keeping watch
over men,
but the people, like pebbles,
are children to them

learn not to burn (archives)
caution:
banning books
by the hundreds
may lead to
burning books
by the thousands
which in turn
may lead to
burning people
by the millions

a bratty young lizard named ace
tried putting his mom in her place:
so his breath, he withheld
as she yelled and she yelled–
till both were quite blue in the face

life on a rock
my morning was free
so i went for a walk,
and i found a small tree
growing out of a rock,
and i stood there in shock
as the thought came to me:
the earth is the rock
and i am the tree.

sometimes in our lives
the beauty of one moment
is what saves the day

the introvert (shadorma)
a frozen
creek may seem at first
as silent
as a book
but once the ice has melted
it’s a babbling brook

haiku 188
morning has broken–
and all of its pieces are
ablaze in the sky
