haikus
Welcome, you, reader
To the haiku section of
this poet's garden.
But seriously, this is the area where you'll see my neato 5-7-5 stylings of literary art. Or something like that. Some of these are profound; some are just plain obnoxious! Anyway, disclaimer if you think some of them are too mushy; nyah-nyah, I don't care. (Hey, you clicked here.)
Potato
Potato in mouth
Chips I crush in my big teeth
Mm! Very Salty
Fireworks
Expressing all love
Taking the time to kiss her
Zoom! like fireworks
Shiny
Shiny, shiny thing
Fits in the sheath on my back
Fwoosh! Flash of the steel
Mousepad
Mouse of regal white
Fly across your mousepad free
Click! Lots of work done
Zap!
Control with buttons
Change my channel for me please
Zap! Infrared shot
Smooch
Jennifer, lovelove
moving close to your body
Smack! Lips on your lips
Outside
Summer-spring with sun
weather hot for outside fun
Nah! Not me, I say
Sock
White sock, white sock, you
cover my foot with whiteness
Wha? It crunches up
Boring
Complete the math game
Finish all homework the same
homework I complain
March
Monday, do not look
Tuesday is ahead of you
With Sunday behind
Shirt
Pink shirt, all pretty
wearing thy sign on my love
What is it? Seahorse
Class
Ring of sparkle there
Shine with your inner beauty
Lined with silverness
Flashback
Picture of past life
Show the future without strife
Photo? Third grade then
Reading
Reading with earnest
Finishing books one to two
Flap! The book closes
New Year
Zoom! Lights flash and roars
are heard; what is going on?
Chinese celebrate
Damsel
Lady in a jam
Dragon fights against her man
She has now been saved
Lovers
Lover and lovess
napping on the bed with sun
overhead; Ahh, peace
NS
This province, this place
Which produces my love's face
Where? Nova Scotia
Spring Tree
Still quiet in air
trees rustle as she plays with
my hair; a lovesigh
Modern Marvel
Wow! Pants that zip off
at the knee, no less, no more
Shucks, I'm so amazed
Hobby
Roleplaying games, hey
you drown me in your stories
save the world, I must
Keyboard
Key after keystroke
make your move, all you fingers
Enter last to press
Forgetful
Time, tick, tock, tick, tock
stretching from long ago to now
Crap! I forgot my watch
Mystery
What is the meaning
of black tape on that clock there?
to fool the students
What a Haiku
Maybe Haikus are
boring as hell, but I sure
like making each one!
Love Rest
A peaceful small thought
Fields of green and us alone
Picnic that we're on
The Moon
The moon, up so high
Shining down on those below
What will your light show?
Passion
Like so much a flame
Passion is truth, that's your name
Ruling over us all
More poetry to be created and uploaded soon!
