    jokers are telling their jokes

    hemming and hawing

    Not from within
    No such without
    The brushstroke of the universe swipes once

    Heart riding the waves
    Always aching, lost, drowning
    Seas calm; freedom again

    Moon dropped train runs through
    Into mourning horizons
    Trails of sun behind

    Warm, salty and wet
    Dripping slowly or gushing
    Happiness awaits

    ....get your minds out of the gutter! It's about tear drops :D

    Haiku written today for the atmosphere here with my animals and burial of oscar. Thedope, thank you for reminding me of Haiku. i used to write it all of the time....forgot about it until your thread.

    Good-bye Oscar cat
    You are so missed sweet, dear friend
    No replacing you


    Sully golden boy
    Sits near another lost friend
    Compassionate dog


    Moxy pug sits by
    Understanding what she sees
    looks me in the eye


    Champy pug looks on
    With sadness in his big eyes
    Fights with all his might


    House full of pug dogs
    I have spread myself too thin
    They have each other

    Finnegan so mad
    Sees death again and again
    does not want to know


    Spanky cat again
    We bury a friend of ours
    You have seen it all

    Makes you powerful?
    kicking'em when they are down
    You're an empty shell.

    The moon glows
    A soft glow
    That pulls at my heart notes

    The moon so silent
    Just surrounded by darkness
    Yet sheds so much light
