Literary September

favorite people
live between book covers and
dance in memory                                                                                                                                                                                    
A literary week - a friend is at work on his next book, and one of my favorite literary characters started his own FB page. And some obliging person even sends in-character notes in response to posts. Literary characters seem to help me through the times when I can't meet the people I'd love to have around. The fact that most are ridiculously good-looking doesn't hurt.

spring rain falls at night
flushing out the snow, waking
tiny emerald leaves

Okay, so I took a year off. And then some. Sometimes, the Muse does not speak. Well, here goes: Typhoon Boss blows in Disturbing my harmony Leading with much noise

Haiku du jour

tiny cold kisses
tempt me down the snowy road
white and pure and clean


For those who hate winter, my theory is that they don't spend enough time seeking its beauty. I like the calmness of it (even with hidden ice patches).

New Year's Eve 2012

New Year's Eve and I / eye each other, like cats who / could be friends - maybe.

Haiku du jour

Holiday cards flutter
in like snow, making my life
glitter and glisten.

Haiku du Jour

the holiday calms
the morning rush, the world stills -
my heart opens wide
