haiku

daffodils smile brightly​as they reach for the sunwell rested, reborn

rising strong in Springblack bear breaks Winter slumberforaging for food

Owl eats MouseSun hides behind MoonNature resets

spitting out paperresidue left behindby candy dots

ocean beachdestroyed by the stormreborn in its wake

morning warms the housesnow melts on the metal roof --tiny avalanche

Pegasus in the cloudsArthur's horse kicks dirt, mumbles,"Bloody showoff..."

inspired by Bob Dylanwritten by Randy BachmanGuess Who: Undun

demons and gods --creations of humanswho don't trust themselves

time marches forwardwith death always close behind --the owl eats a mouse

Maine's originaloddly refreshing soda:Moxie

the old photographfaded cracked and foldedcherished memory

prophetic whispersas the ice-covered pond crackssignaling rebirth

to live lifein tranquility is to notlive life at all

backlit by the sunher eyes are invisible --open or closed?

prism splaying colorsrefracting without judgmentagainst the white wall

passionate young manrelaxing in the comfortof growing too old

blue pickup truckstopped on the shoulder of the road --snow-peaked mountain

the aging knightslumped in the saddleof his broken horse

finding the one lovefinding that love in return:life well lived
