HAIKU COLLECTION

CLOUDS
Clouds move startlingly
         Tracing billowing rhythms
Earth's circular pulse
 
AGE
Age bows head, slows walk
         Yellow gray white fire smoke snow
Body slowly dies
 
YOU
Silent happiness
         with none to disturb the calm
of being with you
 
WATERFALL
Yearning thighs of cliffs
         Succumb with a sigh to wet
Relentless water
