Day 8
I swallow the stars as I breathe in,
Releasing them into the universe,
My heart beating rapidly with fire,
Knowing, anticipating, wanting,
Counting seconds of light before
She arrives, soft, beautiful, brilliant.

Day 4: Venus Haiku
There she is again
Sweet pulsating sensation
Heaven’s deity
You have always been
Ahu of my horizon
Venus of my heart.
Day 5: haiku healing
Teach me to be healed
My fibers are your fibers
Green earthly petals

Day One ‘14
Still night before dawn,
My thoughts gain clarity
In the sound of rain thudding on tin roof
Like after-thoughts jolting me awake
Trying to find relevance:
The dog is restless and needs to go out.
How can I get through the day without coffee?
Today is a friend’s birthday.
I don’t think I’m ready.
The rain draws me back into her intensity,
Steady with beauty And birdsong,
“You’re ready. You’re ready.”
Stolen Stars

I
“You have stolen my stars”
And I don’t mind
Where torn patches in the night sky
Once gathered taut
To hold my universe in
Now billows
Frayed edges free
Unraveling
Like a winter scarf worn thin.
II
It’s raining.
Darkness still clings to my skin,
And stars, gleaming like a million
Ancient fires
Flicker in my heart,
Blinking
In that silent moment before dawn.
III
Let go your heavy heart,
embers of memories,
illusions of fire,
And take back your stars
Pulsating tenderly in my night sky,
Aching impatiently in these long winter hours,
Take back your stars and sit with me
In this divine night
Sipping tendrils of light
Until morning.
K.K.L.E
For You
