Poetry: Haiku

Beauty is a trap
With jaws open to fool us
Through its devious smile.

Beauty in the night
Monlight on the garden path
Ethereal Sea

Begin at the end
dusk is but a dawn rewound
live your life anew

Blanket of distrust
See my eyes and hear my soul
Would I ever lie?

Butterfly has gone
His soul melded into clouds
I yearn for him still

Calm before a storm
Signals trouble right ahead
Worry and heartbreak

Circle of life is
Water morphing into clouds
Palpably congealed

Climb to the summit
Take pleasure in the wide view
But do not look down

Colours of our love
Ultra-violet-infra-red
And all else between

Darkness lulls my mind
The forest holds salvation
Black shadows protect

Dawns swathed in haze
Misty mornings of my mind
Memories Linger

Dreams of times gone by
memories spun in silver thread
Never forgotten

    Holds cane, walks slowly
    knees stiff and swollen, painful
    limping, old and tired

    Bent man, pleading eyes
    stop it hurting, I can't

    glittering moonlight,
    that lights up the darkness soon
    after the sundown

    wintry breezes,
    that chills to below zero
    why this winter

    On my evening walks.

    Shrilling of cicadas
    drowns out the soothing surf
    of freeway traffic.

    In the moonlight
    the soccer field glints
