Me, for fun, you see

Micro-Tale (The Hobo)

Mountains

I climbed a mountain once –

Not to prove myself

Nor demean its grandeur,

But simply to enjoy the view.

.

I climbed a mountain recently –

Emotional rather than literal

Not because I wanted to,

But because I needed to.

.

I look at mountains often –

Without them a scene feels plain.

It’s not just their beauty,

But the things they hide.

.

I like to imagine,

What’s beyond the mountain –

Another path, a quiet respite,

Something I need to find…

.

me?

Haiku (Bay of Flames)

cerulean sea

brings life to the granite shore 

igniting the rock

Haibun (Scorpio)

Tanka (Venus)

a harem of stars

while sea-mist veils the pre-dawn

Venus holds my heart

sunrise promises splendour

only one can claim my love

Haiku (Sleep)

Gently sleep tugs me
Into a late morning nap
Winter sun subdues
