Tankas
a snowglobe
in my right hand
a rainglobe in my left
which poetry
should i travel into?
flying thoughts
turn into
flowing words
the magic of writing
with a quill
fallen leaves
on the ground
being scooped
the shape of wind
yellow spinner top
elephants' feet
listening to
ground vibrations
nothing is
as it seems
one step forward
three steps of wobble
in mid-air
chameleon acts as if
he is a wind-blown leaf
the sorrow
of a lifetime
in her heart
my aunt needs
a pacemaker
to cry
amidst laughing
to laugh
amidst crying
to be a human
walking in the crowd
a whiteness passes
by the edge of my eye
in the arms of a woman
a duck smiles
forget-me-nots
attached to
an aged turquoise door
only a sparrow
stops by
secret winding path
through wildflower(s)
i spot a deer
at the far end
looking backwards
Senryu/Haikus
snapdragons
talking puppets
to delight my inner child
plastic bits everywhere cigarette butts
inconsolable the saddest word
