Haiku Moments

[beautress]

shrewd politicians
speak with tergiversant tongue
circumlocution​

 

[beautress]

lightly salted nuts
seem to be laden with salt
more than labels say​

 

[beautress]

tesxture on canvas
seem to bring life to painting
hanging on the wall​

 

[beautress]

lovely blue skipper
cockrell butterfly center
hosts many flyers

​

 

[beautress]

cat softly napping
dressed in her calico fur
silky pajamas​

 

[beautress]

mitts and equipment
by blue stripes and baseball caps
baseballs on quilt top​

 

[beautress]

six stolen bases
antique baseballs on buff shelf
in the log cabin​

 

[beautress]

on a dark evening
northern saw-whet owl observes
small prey unawares

​

 

[beautress]

owl butterflies
camouflaged as bird of prey
in ecstasy join

​

 

[beautress]

when heavy eyelids
with burning sensation sting
imminent naptime​

 

[beautress]

when a job well done
makes a heart glow with some joy
with a sense of peace​

 

[beautress]

prayers for world peace
touch on the innocent heart
we make it happen​

 

[Mindful]

sun climbing higher
each day brighter than before
revealing new joy

 

[beautress]

miss piccolo hangs
paws and chin unsupported
liquid cat near sleep​

 

[beautress]

closing tired, red eyes
scanning the yellow-pink scrim
absent images​

 

[beautress]

ffell asleep last night
entertained by dream nonsense
signifying naught​

 

[beautress]

clouds cumulated
until no night sky was seen
nor stars visible​

 

[beautress]

spirits of comfort
protect us from hate's curses
because God loves us​

 

[beautress]

on enchanted hill
glory sparkles on the snow
hope glimmers around​

 

[beautress]

beauty of fireplace
warms us when short days grow dim
keeping chill away​
