Storm rolls through the black
Electric blue lights the night
Thick thunder rumbles

Haiku – Red Morning
The morning sun squeezed
Eased into the cloudy day
White clouds set on fire

Poem – Flip Flops
Flip Flops in the rain
Feeling so much pain
The warm sandy beach
So far from their reach
On this long gloomy day
So full of dark and grey

Haiku – Solitude V
Quiet solitude
Morning rests in soft slumber
The day gently wakes

Poem – Tropical Dreams and Humid Desires
Part 1
Cigar smoke twirls,
spins, whirls
snares the fan above
Part 2
Humid air
cut it like a knife
Man sits alone
drink in hand
coke and rum
Part 3
A spy perhaps
Maybe just a sailor
Tropical tourist
or world traveler
Part 4
The bar rings
sings
with music
and people
Man watches
He’s home
at peace
by the ocean
Loosely inspired by this song:
-
Haiku – Lighthouse 3
Bright eye on the shore
Spinning, turning, circular
Night drifts in slowly

Haiku – Summertime
Warm moist summer night
Floating yellow lights flicker
Grill smoke still lingers

Haiku – Vacation
Time to get away
A week of ocean relief
Soul healing water
Getting away for a bit so the blogging will be limited for a while. I will still have access, but not as much time to post. Will be back in a week or so.

Haiku – Out to Lunch
Hang up a white sign
A week full of Island Time
Calling out to me

Haiku – Ripples
The memory drifts
Ripples the fabric of time
Watching ocean waves

Haiku – Departing Storm
Clouds racing – chasing
Across the deep daylight blue
Hint of storm – fading

Haiku – 42 in May
Record low today
Summer knocked, no one answered
Why so cold in May?
Record low for this morning is 43 degrees in Raleigh, N.C. We made it down to 42. This is so unbelievable for Memorial Day weekend. Weird weather.
