divergent sunlight
is quite unparalleled in
nature’s illusions

epiphany
I dove into
the cosmic sea
and lost my own
identity
now I’m in it
and it’s in me
a merging
has begun
I glimpsed thru
this epiphany
a cosmic view
and now I see
that everybody
else is me
for all there is
is one
haiku 39
silver streams of thought
flow through the verdant contours
of a peaceful mind

right now
A shot out my back door right now.
Felt I had to share.
Mama and Bambi
So trusting.

six word stories — 5
I’m quitting drinking for good, again.
poor luna
luna lures in noble
golden-hearted sunbeams
with her ‘poor me’ act
and pallid complexion
and if they so much as
graze her ashen cheek
with a solitary kiss
she steals their gold
and sends them away
on silver moonbeams
wordless wed 7/25/18

haiku 38
on calm summer nights
the sea of tranquility
lives up to its name
–photo by me
fears
our fears may rear up
at times in our lives and stop
us dead in our tracks
we must look them in the eye
and bravely step over them
–photo by me
summer is
summer is the time for
weddings and wildflowers
new pets and new friends
romance and heartbreak
summer is the sound of
screen doors slamming
crickets and fireworks
thunder and pelting hail
summer is full of mischief
and la joie de vivre
but first and foremost
summer is potato salad
