The girls and the son
Innocent, unwitting seed
Spilled far from true love.

Cowboy's tired feet
Bearing weary body up
Till dusk falls, gently.

Death parts ways, brings light
To the hearts of absent friends

Asian Art Museum,
an old shoe; an afternoon
with Shuggy: magic!

Ennis with Jack

Sunflower, golden
petels opening to the
warmth of a first spring.

Jack with Ennis

"O thou weed, that smellst
so sweet,  the senses ache at
 thee," wild columbine.

(quote from Othello;  wild columbine also is called honeysuckle.)

(someone said Jack and Ennis would find the previous two haikuis "somewhat puzzling." I didn';t WRITE therm for Jack and Ennis! I wrotre them for you guys....if everything we writte has to be understood by Jack and Ennis, what the hell are they going to make of John Donne, Pablo Naruda and Tobias Hume? Blank verse? Sonnets? Jeez...is everyone laughing at me?)

Sonnets sing structure
Blank verse rides the open range
Haiku seek shelter
