Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry.
The poems are limited to 3 lines and 17 syllables.

5 on the first line,
7 on the second line,
and 5 on the third.


I try to write one Haiku everyday.
Most days I fail, but some days inspiration strikes.
Sometimes it gushes for days at a time.
You can never tell when something will touch your heart.

Thanks for spending a moment reading
Haiku from the Heart.

I hope you'll be back to read my words.

Mirror, Mirror

We meet again when
our kids are mirrors of us
when we met at first.

Still Crazy After All These Years

Twenty five years gone.
But the light of friendships past,
switch on when we meet.

Escheresque

A reunion.
As laughter ripples outwards,
memories roll in.

Closing In

First snow of Autumn
Streets suddenly look narrow.
Trees laden with snow.

To Be Human

Stopped at a red light
I saw her crying as she 
walked by. Made me sad.

Torn Social Fabric

Economic drought. 
Hopeless people pan-handle, 
stripped of dignity.

No... Thank You!

Grateful for some shade,
the weary traveler gives
purpose to the tree.

Road Trip

Singing silly rhymes,
for my kids, many-a-times,
makes long drives feel short.

Tired

Driving home at night.
Radio plays, wipers dance.
Rain and Jazz mix well.
