Trees

The other day I wrote a short essay on trees.
This set of Haikus was inspired by my essay.
It is really beautiful, I will include the link to my
other blog at the end of this set of Haikus.
I love them both. I hope you do too.


Winter Tree

Tree pregnant with life
Sap coursing through her body
Preparing for birth.



Spring Tree

Tree bursting forth with
Tiny spring green buds of life
Delicate beauty.



Summer Tree

Tall majestic tree
Wearing her finest green leaves
Home for all creatures.



Autumn Tree

Wearing her colors
Proudly finishing her job
The tree sleeps again.



Here is a link to my Trees essay on my other blog.

Lady and the Tramp


Lady and the Tramp
Monumental love story
In Tony's Cafe


In Tony's Cafe
Sharing spagetti for two
Eyes meet as snouts touch


Eyes meet as snouts touch
True love has been awakened

Sweet happy endings

Bits of ME


Bits of ME

Poetry is mine
Words cascade forth from my mind
Preserve bits of ME

 
Preserve bits of ME
Don't want to be forgotten
Like I never lived


Like I never lived
Never felt cared for enough
I never mattered

 
I never mattered
Could not please people enough
Destructed ego


Destructed ego
Myself broken. Into bits
Preserve bits of ME

Hungry Ducks


Down by the river
Napping on a plaid blanket 
Ducks quack hungrily

 

Peanuts and Cider


Picnic lunch for us
Peanuts and apple cider
Down by the river


By the River


Ducks and swans by the
River getting fed bread crumbs
Picnic lunch for us



 

Croissant


Eating a croissant
Under the Eiffel Tower
Mona Lisa smile

 

Emotions


I Wake up crying
Then get excited about
Eating a croissant

 

Nerves


I'm trying not to
jump out of my skin because
I'm not a reptile


Ativan


I tried baklava
as my ativan but it
didn't work for me

Sure tasted yummy though.

Early Bird


Early Bird gets WHAT???
I am a civilized bird.
Want breakfast in bed.


Just in case someone does not get the reference, this refers
to the old saying "The early bird gets the worm".

 

Sweet Haiku Dreams



Time to say goodnight 
Sweet Haiku dreams. Awake with
New ones tomorrow!

Online Bingo




Waste time with Bingo
Or might it just really be
Bingo meditation!


Ok, so maybe I am spending a little too much of my time
playing Bingo on my phone, but geez, it sure gets my mind
off of stuff and oh boy, there are endorphins when you win!
Yaaaayyyyy.

Scared Depressed



I thought I'd put this up here because I know one or two
of you care and want to know why I haven't been contributing
much.

Tumor markers up
even more. Dr wants scans.
Disheartened and scared.
