CAT

So serene you sit
In the window all day long
Too lazy to move

***FIRECRACKER***

Midnight sky flashing
The booming echoes throughout
I sit watching, calm.

***Ice***

Sliding over all
The world's last is overcome
Cold death comes for us

***WINDOW***

Cool square of nothing,
Show me what lies beyond you.
Keep the world at bay.

***KISSING***

How sweet to the touch
Waiting for another one
Blissful is the taste



***LOVERS***

Time stands still when two
people hold tight to something
guaranteed with flesh.

***DAWN***

All is before you
Last night's debauch forgotten
Fresh creation now

***SUNSET***

The day is soon done
when the world completes her spin,
and the sky bleeds red.

***AUSCHWITZ***

Extermination
Death all around vile people
Nazi burn in hell



***BEAUTY***

And so it is said
that true beauty is skin deep.
Do magazines lie?

***9/11***

what is up with the doom and gloom words T?


Early that morning
Destruction death and mayhem
Don't ever forget


***Starlight***

Light peppered throughout
the darkness of the cosmos,
makes the void smaller.

***TOUCH***

I'm crampy and hormonal. Better step back.

Hands caress lightly
Affectionate lovingly
Stroke upon your face



***MUSIC***

* me turning around slowly *

Melody takes wing
flying straight into an ear.
Home of memories.

***Jesus' tomb***

Came expecting flesh
beheld the kingdom within
glorious springtime

***chocolate***

Simply the sweetest
Aromatic decadente
Sumptuous brownie



***Native American***

living of the land
happy till strangers arrived
dirty blankets, death.

- Sorry for the gloominess.

***coffee***

Jolt of energy
that gets me going early,
When I'd rather sleep.

***vegetarian***

How could anyone
Pass up a tasty bovine
in favor of kelp.


***dental floss***

Threaded through my teeth,
removing old bits of food.
No bad breath for me.

***tarantula***

Cold, calculating
weaver of truths and half-lies.
An ageless spinster.

***echo***

What does a duck say
it says quack and quack again
it does not echo

***scissors***

In kindergarten
kids must have a PhD
in scissors cutting!

***Abraham Lincoln***

Our differences
can be overcome in time.
Do not divide us.

***grasshopper***

Summer you fiddled,
while ants prepared for winter.
They won't let you starve.

***iPad***

New technology
The world keeps moving faster
I prefer to chill

***lost***

Is it on TV
Has it happened to your mind
Or is it my keys

***name tags***

You don't know me, but
see this small square on my chest?
This is who I am.

***fat Elvis***

Love your haikus, Stephanie.

This was a great idea, Tressa. The haikus are really fun to read.

Ditto Tressa.
These are fun!

I started this up years ago at a parenting board and we had lots of fun. Everyone's haikus are interesting and funny; or sad, depending on the word.

Slumped upon his throne,
the king has left the building.
Don't forget to flush.

Voting yes on bills
you have not even read yet
screws us royally.

Nydia, that Elvis haiku is priceless!

clubbed with his own club
will Elin stay or leave him
the world has to know

How stupid you look
chasing a white ball for hours.
Rich folks are funny.

Good one, Steph!

Is there life after this life?
Is this all that is?

***cowboy***

Stoic and tireless,
the leathered man rides his horse
across plains of green.

Come weak and weary
Holding your heads high coming
Stay resting yourselfs

So serene she sits,
wearing her mischievous smile:
her secret is kept.

A mad dash to start my day.
Can't catch a good breath.

All who want to read

The pictures everlasting
Silently weeping

A sight of beauty.

Emotionally ready
Uninhibited

Our faces are one.

She crashed her new SUV
But she paid too much

Thin blue line of strength,
holds back violent people.
Yes, you can tase him.
