Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

crazy modern love

crazy love consumes

undone by your sublime text 

heart eclipses mind

the moment permeates all

and the center cannot hold

 Thanks to Reena and RDP for their inspiration. The words nutty, sublime text, and eclipse led to me this ode to crazy modern love, with a shout out to William Butler Yeats (and Joan Didion).  

 

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

unguarded wonder

a moon so intense

I imagine heroin

unguarded wonder

my mind immersed in brightness

trying to find my way home

 Thanks for the inspiration to FOWC and Tanka Tuesday.

 

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

buried fury

buried deep inside

embers turn to ash and bone

waiting for a spark

rekindled love fans the flames  

the candle burns with fury 

Today’s FOWC (CANDLE) and the WDYS photo prompt brought to mind fury and love and buried secrets… thus my bit of verse. Thanks to both for the inspiration. 

 

 

 

 

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

and all that jazz: the Sunday Whirl

draped in velvet fog

filmy thoughts and fingertips

a touch forgotten

 

reveal that moment  

starlight strips back the curtain

the crowd roars your name 

I love to try and create meaning with minimal words. Did I? Who knows?!

Thanks for the great inspiration.  

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

begin again

at the beginning

the day dawns on the big game

my eye on the prize

 

seasons come and go

without beginning or end

from a bird’s eye view
