Long Since Her Garden: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

It had been long since/
I’d toiled in her garden, yet/
I felt I still should.

OR
It had been long since/
I’d toiled in her garden. Still,/
I felt comfort there.

Laughter Good Medicine Strong: Revolutionary ConTEXTing Haiku

There is probably/
no medicine stronger than/
peyote laughter.

It’s always more fun/
to wear my Cheesehead proudly/
after a great game.

Does she ever think/
of me constantly? Or am/
I simply dreaming?

I don’t need to get/
an answer. I just need to/
know that she heard me.

Heaven’s admission/
price is obedience. We/
don’t have to “get it”.

She could have dined on/
Asian noodles. Instead, she’ll/
feast on haiku’d words.

As sun’s light leaves the/
evening sky, light banter turns/
to introspection.

I hope you’re doing/
well. This rhyme’s to tell you: I’m/
(still) interested!

If I’m attentive/
daily, will she at last grasp: /
I’m interested?
