behind the veil
mystery awaits
new life ?

Chevrefeuille




we cross alone
sad to be leaving
one way journey

birds praising their Creator
without questions

simplicity
key to enlightenment
purity of heart

dumb down for all
democracy rules

Rondolet For Ruth

at ruthie's place
we had lovely sunday lunches
at ruthie's place
there was lots  of laughing and joy
but since she was taken from us
things will never be the same now
at ruthie's place

Sunflower Haibun

broken sunflower
seeds spread all around his stem ;
bringing joy next year

Chevrefeuille

Every year she waits for joy. Every year it becomes less and less. Now she just grasps any joyful moment no matter how fleeting and cherishes it , never counting on a future.It can all be taken away in a flash.

carpe diem
cherish the moment
hold it close

tears
splash into wine
dreams

Chevrefeuille


drowning sorrows
demons swim to the surface
staying afloat

Legends of Jazz: Benny Golson - Killer Joe

you buy her a drink 
hold her hand
smile
then ask her name
she hesitates
it always feels
like someone else
