Trails
Winding paths cross over,
Intersecting life’s pathways,
The trail stops with us.

sun shines, birds sing as
spring bursts from the soil where
your ashes now lay

Cleansing
Dark clouds; promises
Remain of the rain to come.
Bring it on; cleanse me.

shifting skies
clouds fading in the
blurred sky carried away by
a breath of cold wind

Happy Zen Place
The sun on my face.
Mountain trail ahead of me.
This is my zen place.

Spring
Sunlight warms my face.
Vibrant grass, fresh air, blue skies,
refresh tired eyes.

Water in hearts and souls
Puddle not a sea
Ocean, not a calm river
Pond, but not a lake

A Haiku Challenge?
I don't know what I'm doing.
But I will still try.

When Will I Learn?
I
I don’t understand
Much in this life of ever
Growing confusion
II
I’ve learned to pronounce
The words kireji and haiku
But where do they fit?
III
And what of kigo?
Of what season do I write?
The seasons of life?
IV
So now I concede
There will always be some things
I don’t understand
