The Haiku Series, Vol. 5

I don't write haikus for people. Be my exception. 

A. Stardust Waiting
two souls, patiently
sitting side by side, holding
wild hope in their hands (hearts)

J. 271828
blue eyes stare me down
wordless; across the crowded room
could we be so lucky?

R. Like Kindergarten
numbers + logic + laughter
and like lightning, we have found
friendship unbreakable

L. Wanderlust
the wit of the ages
and wisdom of one much older
yet a heart so very young

The Haiku Series, Vol. 4



French Vanilla
Early morning fog
But don't you think I missed
The sparkle in your eyes

Majesty
Watching the sunset
Painted in the autumn leaves
We walk a little slower

This September
Never by chance
We are nearly perfect strangers
Awakening love

Insomnia For Lovers
Meet me at midnight
Underneath the winter moon
We'll chase the night into day

Happy Birthday
Waiting up all night
As the city lights dim
I blow the candles out

Dear Calculus,
Searching all the Earth
3.14159
You are my answer

Something About the Way You Look at Me
Untold stories in your eyes
Tell me that this will be
The last first kiss

The Haiku Series, Vol. 3

Spellbound
Words in black and white
Take me back eleven years
Right back to your side

Once
Strangers at a bus stop
A random act of kindness
We are forever changed

First Sight
Alone in a crowd
Of 30,000 people
He could be the one

Female Intuition
Chaotic inspiration
Reveals the best-kept secret
Sometimes you just know

Nuit Blanche
City streets alight
Radiant with mystery
Of the darkest hour

The Haiku Series, Vol. 2

May I Have This Dance?
The sky opens up
And the rain falls upon us
The soundtrack to our love

A Cinderella Story
The clock chimes midnight
I left it all behind
But the dance does not end

Across the Million Miles
Subsisting on caffeine
I’ve been asleep at the wheel
For the longest time

California
Sleepy town, listen
To the angel songs, and watch
The city lights dance

Rainfall
Twirl me around
In the finest of dresses
As the sky symphony sings

The Haiku Series, Vol. 1

Venus Tonight
Dear Earth, do not rotate
Stay awhile and watch
The battle in the night sky

Journal
The blank lines are soothing
Teeming with infinite possibility
Until I destroy them with my pen

Thou Shalt Not Pass
With a careless stroke
The dotted line has been drawn
Right around my heart

11:11
The cosmos align
I send my wish on the wind
And hope it finds you

Take Me Back to December
Swirls of snowflakes
Catching on my eyelashes
Winter’s first gift

Juliet
A secret smile
Traded across a crowded room
Speaks a million volumes
