Zest for life
living each day with gusto
To soon dead
****
A special friendship
adds zest to a boring day
Seeing you again
****
Zest of a lemon
makes a cool drink more pungent
Elixir of Life
****

The April Heights - Day 29 - #141
As haiku poets
left to our own devices
we write more haiku
****
An ancient journey
fraught with dangers and delights
The grey geese return
****
Looking at albums
many pictures from the past
Loved ones departed

Speak with clarity
the words that are understood
Let those who will - know
****
He speaks to me with
gentleness and clarity
I listen with love
****
Clarity of sight
shows us earth's many wonders
Universal gifts

Temptation
wanting the wrong needs
satisfied
****
My first temptations
were for candy and ice cream
Quite different now
****
Sweet flowers blooming
my garden is delightful
temptation for bees

A melody plays
sounds drifting on the water
evening at the lake
****
Our story plays out
a melody across time
Hope for the future
****
Melody
brings memories back
Old affair

Oh Kismet, I seek
to find you, the search is vain,
you are the constant
****
They are opposites
and a most unlikely pair
it must be kismet
****
She turned left
and found him waiting
'twas kismet

In a state of bliss
she is counting her blessings
A child in her arms
****
Thoughts of the future
never swayed them from their goal
They followed their bliss
****
From the first moment
when you reached out for my hand
I felt only bliss

Mesmerized by you
I want only to enchant
To give as received
****
Stars in the night sky
Mesmerize innocent eyes
Allowed after dark
****
She was lost at once
mesmerized by his sweet smile
Unconscious falling

Still you are away
As I wait and watch for you
even silence speaks
****
We found his old still
In a shed behind his house
making libations
****
In the still waters
I see reflections of you
Always clear to me
****

Serendipity
A fox by the highway
Unexpected thrill
****
Lovers meet
Serendipity
on the rise

He'd prefer her slim
He'd prefer skirts and high heels
A renovation
****
White rabbits turn brown
See Nature's renovation
for summer safety
****
Now renovations
Time for pruning and cutting
Nothing stays the same

Beautiful bright blooms
honeybees in the garden
the scents of summer
****
I come to you
as bees to honey; you are
my sweet sustanence

Being me
a difficult prompt
no haiku
****
The last argument
filled with recriminations
crushed into being
****
My muse is asleep
being hopeless without him
I am passing by

Alive with yearning
I endlessly visit you
Thoughts have no value
****
Your life counts
Find joy this moment
Be alive
****
A question for you
What things could you do without
and still be alive?

Surrounded by mist
breathing in the salt-fed air
aura of the cape
****
When I am with you
I'm captured by your aura
the essence of you
****
This old haunted house
holds an aura of regret
only I can see
****

Warmth felt through small things
Hot coffee, mulled wine, your smile
Life's simple pleasures
****
He begs for small change
Squatting in open spaces
Warmth only a dream
****
Huddled together
entwined bodies giving warmth
Spring is late this year

Perfect harmony
flowers, bees and nectar
coherent nature
***
Are you not confused?
Not one coherent thought here
political tripe
***
No coherent thoughts
now I am bereft of you
Every one escapes

Dreams we are holding
never telling anyone
this is possible
Many days of rain
no new growth is possible
the fields lie fallow
I will turn this way
and he will surely follow
the possible path
