haiku

Tea leaves

Float aimlessly

Stirring moments

Of newness

New day

New year

New hopes

New beginnings

Some people read tea leaves

— I just drink them .

Missing the before,

realize it is my before.

I stop and dwell in time

no before and no after.

I am then in the presence

Of the universe.

a lunar green moth

Rest before taking night flight

Leaving a blessing

A breath , a beat

Hearts connect eternity

Life begins, echo.

The gray stone,

Hundreds of years ago,

Others will pass

And I forgotten.

Time…

I love the sun’s rays

The long and hot sultry days

With sweaty runs and sweet ice tea.

Weekend Speckled white and ash

Contrast green and soldiers seen

In uniform past.

A Day to remember

In winter’s dark embers

With the cold at your feet.

A saint in the past

Made sure love would last

So now we give roses and sweets.

Barrenness season

Frigid reminder of loss

Temporarily …

Love at first sight
