Perched on the exam
table like a rib roast on
white butcher paper.
In the doctor’s office

Coffee date
Conversational
buzz a backdrop to clinking
spoons stirring white clouds.
Almost spring
Snowpack seems solid
but underneath, droplets sing
of melting caverns.
Other daughter’s boyfriend
Bandana over
his sweet smile, ninja to his
anime girlfriend.
Daughter’s boyfriend
He won me over
with his Facebook comment on

Paperless Christmas
Being green we use
fabric bags old boxes to
wrap gifts. No trees die.
Christmas LED lights
Like laser pointers
they blind in red green blue as
they save the planet
Abandoned haiku blog
My door open, but
the rooms are empty, thoughts like
forgotten relics.
Away too long
Stories always tell
of the one who wanders, then
returns home…like me.
Longest night of the year
Soon, darkness recedes.
But tonight I wrap myself
in velvet-starred black.
