Silent Tree of Winter,
Branches now barren
Except for teardrops
As you await
The new buds of Spring,
Or strands of jewels
Left behind by rain?
Syllabic Verse

The haze of winter’s chill
Clouds the mind.
Fight!
Tilus
“A champion is someone who gets up when he can’t” —Jack Dempsey

Astride the night
Rode He the Conqueror
On a white horse

They met
Because of hunger
Happenstance led to
Two hungry hearts finding lasting
Friendship

Deadlines, Challenges
Push us thru our daily life
Dealing with Wants, Needs
Sorting out our prorities
The minutes turn into years
Tanka

Cooing echoing
In the peaceful garden
Daybreak visitor
Haiku

This is the year
That I faced fear
Quencing it’s voice
You can too
Take that first step
Fear will go
You’ll be free
And out of the reach
Of fear’s grip
Triple Word Lune

Cold and Frosty morn
Carpet of white glistens
Dawns the first day of Winter
Haiku
Today is the First day of Winter—brrr

Out Christmas shopping?
Looking for the perfect gift?
Patience is needed.
So, put on your biggest smile,
And just go with the slow flow
