So calm, so quiet
I'm lost in the shelves of books
In the library
So calm, so quiet
I'm lost in the shelves of books
In the library
It's only forever—
You can exist with the pain,
Not fatal, you know…
Deal with the shunning—
Natural reactions—what
Did you expect? Roses?
It is for the best
Isolation may heal what
Medicine cannot…
Face up to the facts:
You were dealt a bad hand, but
You must play the cards…
Switch seats with me?
Viewpoint become different?
It’s only forever…

Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
Of all the heavens,
Let me cherish the one drop
Of dew in a leaf.
Lucid as it is,
Hanging by the very edge,
Swaying timidly;
Scented with autumn,
Mirroring the cosmic world
In its tiny frame.
Limning my feelings,
Like a never-shed tear,
Or unspoken word…
Heaven mine, let me
Once more to your wondrous self
Admit adorance.
.
...the smell of flowers through metal labyrinths.
Wow!
Wow! You Haiku scribes
Were on fire this weekend;
Keep up the great work!
Sincerely,
Uncle Lar
good morning uncle
hope the weekend relaxed you
glad you're back with us
All the Life in me
Reverberated anew,
And Eden drew close.
I wonder why I feel so wonderfully wonderful today!!

...the smell of flowers through metal labyrinths.
Sunshine filters through
Cloud cover promising dampness—
Cardinal sings “Wet, wet”…
Cannot pierce fog,
Enshrouding my mountains—
Wet blanket covered…
The hikers out there,
On their tireless journey from
Georgia up to Maine…
Along the brown thread,
That curves along woodlands—
And passes nearby me…
To conquer the trail.
You must conquer Virginia,
More than a fourth…
Good fortune to all,
I have walked your pathway
Ever, ever on...

can one stop the breath
each day as we awaken
the heart continues
the days pass quickly
in the land of emotions
there are but two sides
there is the darkness
bringing fear and misery
anxious to make friends
requesting your life
spinning a chain of deceit
hoping for your bond
shall we sit as one
feel the closeness of our thoughts
seamless in their world
soon it becomes real
this place of darkness and gloom
the cruel comfort
how does one escape
this one hapless companion
is there no one there
Challenging friendship
Reveal nothing of yourself
So mysterious
everything unseen
reflected pools shimmering
are the fallen leaves
soundless weightless words
heard without understanding
measured tipped the scale

Know not where it ends--
Journey of a sojourner,
Skyline smiles at me.

Give someone roses
While fragrance may be enjoyed—
Useless after death…
Tell them of your love,
While yet them may respond for—
No tombstone responds…
Share what you want now—
Tomorrow is not promised—
Graves make cold companions…
But we have today,
Who needs distant tomorrows,
Here and now is fine…

June is finally
Here, kids get out of school, and
Warmer weather comes.
This golden ev’ning,
Let it please last forever,
Let me feel the gold!
