are painted across the day

Haiku – Today’s Run – (5/24/2013)
Dark and stormy skies,
are painted across the day
3 miles – sun erupts

Poem – Bruised Purple Sky
Day-light choking,
strangled out by darkening clouds.
Severe storm warning,
thunder sounds.

Poem – Tornado
A barren land,
left in your wake.
Lives and homes destroyed,
by the path that you take.
I thought I was taking a small break, but this tornado today has really bothered me so I had to write something about it. Just seeing all the damage and destruction and hearing about all the lives lost has really put me at a loss. My heart and my prayers go out to them and not only them, but all of those who have faced something like this.

Haiku – Chill
What’s this, cool again?
Summer is ever so close
Winter’s grasp lingers
Cold morning again and a cool day as well. I really can’t believe this is May already. Where is the Spring? Summer is getting close and we still really haven’t had a solid Spring. Winter really is tough to kick this year.

Gentle breeze blowing
Cherry tree in full blossom
Snowing pink snow flakes

Under a dark sky
On the big green lily pads
Frogs sing to the rain

Poem – Spring Rising 4
1
A warm April sun
Greets my eyes today
As the cold of night lingers
The rays push it away
2
I turn my face towards the sun
As it rises in the sky, bright blue
The sun casts its loving glow
Wipes away the dew
3
Fragrances fill my nose
In the living smell of Spring
The world is alive
As the birds return and sing
•
Spring Rising 1
The first day of March
Spring’s growth starting to blossom
Life wakes from slumber
Spring Rising 2
I hear birds chirping
Spring sounds push through the night’s dark
Warm days on the way
Spring Rising 3
Daylight Savings Time
Yes, Spring has sprung all over
Longer nights ahead

Poem – Unwelcome Guests
1
The clouds languish,
hang around
Like unwelcome guests,
they surround
2
My mood shifts, changes
Dreary day,
these unwelcome guests,
so cold and grey
3
Oh, unwelcome guests,
So full of dark today
Please, please, I beg of you,
go away
