Grabbing Her At Night: Rhyming Haiku Lament

I grab her now like
she once grabbed me. There is no
result I can see.

Bell Bottom Intentions For High School Reunions

Backstory: As I prepared for my 50th High School Reunion (including registering on-line on the high school’s reunion site), a woman I barely knew and I started writing about past intentions, bell bottoms, and memories. One evening, I wrote several haiku based on life reflections… and thinking about wearing hip-hugger bell bottom’d jeans to the reunion.

Wearing bell bottoms
removes our blues, if we let
them make us groovy.

Put out intentions
for what you want, what you need,
what is right. They’ll come.

I fear to again
wear hip hugger jeans, for my
hips have long vanished.
[giggle].

I arise in a
zone, long ago forgotten,
searching with new eyes.

Sleepy Time Down South Nap: Haiku

After long summer
walks in woods and fields, did great
writers nod off? Nap?

As My Vision Fades ImproVerse Sonnet

As I age,
My vision fades.
Yet I’m sure
I’m seeing more.

The same sun shines North and South: Lake Winneconne Sunset My experience fills in
views I’m seeing again.
And colors even more
scenes I’ve not seen before.

It’s frustrating to me,
this hazed fogginess I see;
but my sight was always poor,
so I accept the gaps and endure.

For even blurred pictures I now have at hand
Time lets me more clearly see and understand.

What Did The Greats Think? Haiku

What did the Greats think?

Few Regrets In Memories: Haiku

I wake up thinking
of past chances, mistakes, joys,
glad for few regrets.

Nature’s Multiplier Effect: Prose

Today, I posted a prose piece about wildflowers, grounding/earthing, negative ions,

The same sun shines North and South: Lake Winneconne Sunset and their impact on our bodies, minds, souls. Yes, these can all improve our health. But what if Nature adds on to the impact of everything God gives us? What if there is a multiplier effect?
