Waiting to Die



I'm waiting to die
Why can't I have my whole life
Terrified to death

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.

Telephone + Tell A Phone = Smart Phone!






















Picture of Woman Listening On Phone by Petr Kratochvil


Telephone  + Tell A Phone = Smart Phone!

All day long we talk
And tell a phone all we know
Now its  called smart phone

The Name


Somewhat untraditional, but I hope you will find it fascinating.


Why have they left me
On this strange cold evil place
Left to die alone

Meant to do great things
But they abandoned the hope
Leaving not the key

Just bones left at last
The bones of something special
Never recognized

What is my name?
Bright flashing white lightning bolt type thing shapes happening  then a fuzzy vortex with an opening appearing cloud like with wavy lines as in a primitive drawing of water, sort of either coming from the cloud vortex opening or in front of it. This is what was seen when the eyes were closed and the question was asked.

Two Haikus : New Day and Another Day


I wrote these as I was waking up.



Rest of the world :
 
Sun shines through closed eyes
Body stirs slowly stretching
Dawn of a new day
 
 
Me:
 
Ugh sun is shining
Body aches and will not move
Another crappy day

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

Walkies


This is a series based on an imaginary dog walk since I can't really
walk my little dog these days. But it is so nice to imagine.

sweater and coat on
walking in the cold brisk air
our adventure time


our adventure time
stiff breeze sends scents of autumn
nose up sniffing air

nose up sniffing air
smokey scent of burning wood
flowers in our sight

flowers in our sight
pretty purple leaves displayed
stop look walk again

stop look walk again
keys jangle as door opens
adventure ending

adventure ending
disappointment in the eyes
cookie happiness

cookie happiness
crumbs on couch and wagging tails
life is good again

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

 

Free writing


Trying some off the 
cuff free haiku writing so
try to humor me

No thinking here! LOL



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.
