On the sward today
Dustings of snow like whitewash
On an aged fence
Month: January 2018
Haiku 29 Jan 18
Sometimes scenery
Is more what you choose to see
Than what meets the eye.
Haiku 27 Jan 18
Once again, the sun
Is tardy in its rising.
Blessings of aging.
In Davos
There he stands, agape
Trumpeting his trumperies
To that gilded horde
Senryū 26 Jan 18
This Republic Day
Some in India decry
A dictator’s hand
Take Naught But Memories
It weighs on my mind,
My weight upon this planet.
Shall I reduce my impact;
Leave but a Buddha Footprint?
Senryū 12 Jan 18
When fury rises
Over poorly chosen words
What’s a man to do
Vexing Questions
Why must hard work come
When we are the most fatigued
Rather than when we’re rested?
Anodyne
I crave the quiet
Moment to take pen in hand
Compose some small peace
Aroil in Pain
