time machine
bringing back advice
we fail to follow
Haiku Dialogue, Failed Haiku
anthropocene—
the call of whales
silenced
(after Gyōdai)
Haiku Dialogue, HSA Member Anthology
every breath
one leaf closer
to the flowered sky
The News-Gazette
binoculars
all that stand between
me and the stars
Haiku Dialogue
scene change
rising through the trap door
spring birdsong
Haiku Dialogue
blue, green, black
ink-covered pages—
last year’s full journal
Haiku Dialogue
new moon
without the trickster
stars shine clearly
Haiku Dialogue
around the pond
wind sweeps cattail fluff
spring cleaning
Haiku Dialogue
swept from the shed
with last year’s leaves:
dead bumblebee
Haiku Dialogue
tearful goodbyes
to best friends
after “The End”
Haiku Dialogue
winter solstice:
darkness recedes
with each pen stroke
Haiku Dialogue
cicada compline
exultant firefly flashes
tonight we remain
The News-Gazette
green stalks
launching suns to the sky–
prairie dock
The News-Gazette
diapause–
spiderwebs frost to tinsel
under fireless stars
Haiku Dialogue
fresh snow melting
under bright sun–
April strawberries
HSA Member Anthology
every penstroke
a new dream
blossoms
Haiku Dialogue
mountain lake wading—
solid gold sunlight swirls
with every step
Haiku Dialogue
painted birds take flight
peck pixel seeds from flagstone—
spreading lies like weeds
Haiku Dialogue
their tv’s blue glow
lights empty bookshelves
I guess they e-read
Haiku Dialogue
after equinox
smiling under still-warm sun—
wildflower seedheads
Haiku Dialogue
he forgets his pills
for the third time—
her eyeroll
Haiku Dialogue
unfallen
ancient stars hoard
all my wishes
Haiku Dialogue
crossing the gulf
between sunflowers—
goldfinch
Haiku Dialogue
