HAIKU TRILOGY

 

I. It is when the light comes out of your eyes

That you know more is at work.

II. More than physics this,

More than matter here

In the light shining through you.

III. Ghosts take many varied forms.

They curl in smoke,

Morph in cloud

Turn in stone.

Eternal Return

Water rises as thin film from a never-still sea
Warmed of a never-still sun.
Whirled in rising air
The sky curtains. 
Massed mist forms
Storms on warmed worn earth.

The billowed sky
Veils myriad faces, distant places
Here and gone.
Darkening day beckons.
It shadows and sighs
A night-borne silence.

At end of day
Traffic rumble and cricket trill
Draw forth tears and yearning
As I search for you once again.
