It seems I seamlessly drift
with smiles to seldom

To the resting day
I relinquish everything
My soul is refreshed

Tri-haiku XIII (cold) Pt.III

The white of winter
Carpe Diem (seize the day)
for its beauty cast

Tri-haiku XIII (cold) Pt.II

The white of winter
drills down deep right to the core
People shivering

Tri-haiku XIII (cold) Pt.I

The white of winter
clings ethereal and cold
Steel and iron-clad

Last day haiku

The last days arrives
And as now the last year fades
we welcome the new

Penultimate haiku

Second to the last
We say farewell to the year
and prepare for next

Antepenultimate haiku

Twenty-ninth today
Antepenultimate one
of twenty eighteen

Day after Boxing Day haiku

And though the star stays
Yuletide festivities fade
as resolve takes hold

Familiarity (haiku)

Familiar this
my solace and my comfort
Warming like sunshine

Home (haiku)

Home, where my heart is
Comfort at the end of day
in my safe haven

Lift (haiku)

To wake to music
A simple song lifts the day
Sunshine from the rain

Tri-haiku X (tears)

To open your eyes
as bright sparkles sting and fall
It’s ok to cry

Embrace my sorrow
But then tomorrow bring smiles
that I may see joy

As sometimes a tear
will fall from my eyes with joy
as something moves me

Tri-Haiku VIII (winter)

Behind winter’s veil
the brittle chill sent shivers
and I felt the cold

Behind winter’s veil
I dressed up warm to the chill
with best foot forward

Behind winter’s veil
I felt the warm of the sun
for a brief moment

Tri-Haiku VII (music)

Here’s to the music
Through the years has kept me sane
and continues now

Here’s to the music
A melody for my life
wholesome to the core

Here’s to the music
‘long as I have ears to hear
It’s my sustenance

Red IV (haiku)

Crimson the blanket
Warm and crisp and crunchy soft
To rest in Autumn

Tri-Haiku VI (Autumn)

Gold from the sunset
falls as such with autumn leaves
settling to the sea

A sea of crunching
Yellow, reds and gold are here
there beneath my feet

And just like the beach
this November paradise
Autumn comes again

Tri-Haiku II (Seagull)

In a summer sky
Wings spread wide to swoop and soar
Seagull flying by

Tri-Haiku (3 lines)

Three lines to capture
a life of special moments
with words of meaning

The Poet’s Voice III

This inspiration
found in life and echoed here
Clear, the Poet’s Voice

The Poet’s Voice II

2 of 3

The silver on the
glistening sea, a poet’s
voice to poetry

The Poet’s Voice

Scattered I find them
Craft and mould to syntax found
Words to poet’s voice

Stars III

Yellow, I see them
and myriad colours more
Jewels in the night sky
