Tanka

afternoon mending-
a breeze through the window
stirs a reverie;
what guiding spirit led me
to this comfort zone?
Simply Haiku, Feb. 2008


morning bird calls-
I rise with expectation
of your smile
together we plan a day
of no plans

SPRING TALES

Infused in the morning dampness the romance of lilacs and climbing roses. Lazy afternoons under willows sipping love poetry and wine. Tales of chivalrous knights and their ladies conjured in the breeze.

mundane chores
spiced
with cinnamon tea
