Channeling Spirits

So I let go and soar

to the new heights I crave

My appetite for precision

voracious, anticipatory,

relentless and true

Variegation – #DailyHaikuChallenge

.

Lush Variegation

Autumn and Winter Fusing

Sensations Mingling

.

Americas Vote: Haiku.

A ridicules election taking place

Haiku on Trust

A relationship
Is closer when built on trust.
Fear builds calluses.

Haiku on Attitude

“Attitude” is just
Another word for posture.
You get my leaning?

This World, A Seat

when fires dance in the sky

and eyes linger in deep caves

when snow flows into the heart

palms in love with fired coals

 

Three Lines – Haiku

In just three lines
Significant power to
paint pictures of life

SOFT SCOOP

 

I’m wrestling with the ice cream
Inside this soft scoop box
My spoon is bent,my patience spent
I’m trying to outfox
The barrier before me
To get my just dessert
I’ll hack at that unyielding mass
No matter what the hurt.

Defeat

Captured by demons.
Long nails gouge my ego
With gnarled fingers.
Ever they’ve crept in my wake.
At last, my race is over.

Steel – #DailyHaikuChallenge

.

Standing Tempest Shakes

Topsy-turvy, upside-down

Embrace the steel chill

Stay

Stop

don’t run away

We can move mountains

if you just stay

Fundy

Submitted by  erbiage



 

My love is like that northern bay
It will ebb and pull away
Then coaxed out by her shapely moon

Serenade

.

The silence Serenades my Soul

Dulcet music ringing

The distance drinks deep of my Longing

Melodious chimes Singing

To the sea – haiku

To the sea once more
for a battery recharge
Breathes life into me

Boo! Halloween Haiku

Spooks all around me,
Feeding off my sanity.
Must be Halloween!

-30.10.16_00:37-

Beak faced demon,
And the rabbit from hell,
Metallic skull face,
All leering up at me
Pawing at the veil of
Reality,

My pen: Haiku.

Take this simple pen

Hope

Sometimes it’s only after

eerie shadows are embraced

and that slow-motion fall

into the dark reveals

The Fog

.

Stillness Whispers All Around,

Delicate,

Imperceptible,

Incongruous Sound;

I DON’T DESERVE

 

I don’t deserve to be the one
Who Jesus died to save
I don’t deserve to be the one
Who Christ took to the grave
Then He rose to give me life
A wretched soul like me
Why did He go through all that pain
Just to set me free.

Shroud

.

Echoes Mute and Transitory

Fleetingly Heard Upon the Breeze,

Mask Interminable Silence,

As Moans Escape the Beguiling Seas

Poem of the Years — Pelicans leave the room

Thanks to an old school friend I am able to share my first published poem from 1972 when I was 14 years old !!!!!

Pelicans leave the room

 

I cry with pain

Vomit flies about the room with frustration

My inner sense is black and forgetful.

Scary? No Thanks!

Spooky, scary, howling…BOO!

Smoky, darkness?…Nope, not on my list of ‘To do’s’

Things that fright,

And goes bump in the night…

Flower – haiku

Flowering passion
Flowers satisfy passion
Passion in flowers

MASK

Beneath the mask you’re wearing,
There lies a crumpled heap,
A mass of contradictions,
That you’re desperate to keep,
If only people knew you,
A heap of sin and shame,
They would surely shun you,
They wouldn’t be to blame.

Are You Afraid of the Dark?

To those who fight the monsters
That lurk beneath the bed,
Who feign the fear of what they hear
In dark, they dare to tread.

They brave the creaking floorboards,
the attics full of bats,
Descend the flight of dim-lit stairs,
To dank dark dens of rats.

Rainy Afternoon Haiku

Rainy afternoon.
I don’t feel any sadness,
Merely peaceful ease.

An Angel, A Heart, A Christmas Prayer

When you lay your heart out, open in your hands in front of you to share, hoping that by sharing, another’s pain is diminished. Somehow by being closer to love shared by knowing the heart of Jehovah God,  then maybe, just maybe, healing will begin in those small pieces of pain shared.

An Angel, A Heart, A Christmas Prayer

Often I sit and wonder of knowing a mother’s love for a child.

Thoughts and emotions taunt of wanting ever to be bequiled
