Like a Vapor

Empty words

Have no meaning,

No purpose.

Floating phrases

Warming the air with promises

Dissolve in thin air

Shadorma

January 2017, Senryu

A speech, a promise

Strong words spoken now go forth

Seeds for fallow ground

Senryu

Reprieve

Rain puddles

Among green carpet

Sun shining

Melted snow

Temperature climbing

Winter’s fury ceases

Shadorma

Repetition

Don’t quit

Keep looking up

Though the path is long and hard

Stay focused on climbing higher

Don’t quit

Stay focused on climbing higher

Though the path is long and hard

Keep looking up

Don’t quit

Butterfly Cinquain
