Facebook stalking
with no return gawking
is not worth
the deep mirth
and late-night walking.

The Best Valentine: Romantic IMprov Haiku
Flowers wilt and die./
Chocolate turns to *crud. Poem words/
immortalize you.
*Originally “crap”
A Rose, Knelt: Romantic IMprov Sonnet
A rose, knelt,/
at a dance,/
is scarcely a precursor/
to true romance.
Nor does it show/
any gentlemanly side./
It simple shouts out/
for attention, with pride.
Much more kind/
is the man who just/
treats women with respect/
and so gains their trust.
For ’tis not with the outward loud showing,/
but with inner kindness which sets women’s hearts glowing.
Not Missing Her Mouth: Revolutionary IMprov Haiku
I won’t miss her mouth./
I will miss the sounds that come/
out and inspire me.
Not Going There: Romantic Improv Haiku
I don’t want to “go /
there” because I’m enjoying/
here so much right now.
Conspiracy Heresy? I Don’t Care, You See: Revolutionary IMprov Sonnet
To all those who think /
there’s a Conspiracy:
What I say now may brink/
on pure heresy.
I’ve heard a lot/
what they have to share./
I’ll tell them what:/
I don’t really care!
I’d rather focus my time/
and attention/
on fixing myself;/
on mind, heart and soul reinvention.
For it’s best, when my changed self is unfurled,/
that I can join with God and help change my world.
Jaw-Dropping Red Dress: Romantic IMprov Haiku
I tried to type a/
gracious red dress compliment./
My jaw hit the keys.
Running Through A Small-Town Graveyard: Revolutionary IMprov Rhyming Haiku
The small-town graveyard/
is the last distillery,/
creating spirits.
OR
The cemetery/
is our last distillery,
refining spirits.
Cool Like Betty White Birthday: Revolutionary IMprov Rhyming Haiku
When I am old, with/
the end in sight, I hope I’m/
cool like Betty White!
