sense softer silence

schooling sailors glide along

whipping whippling air

Haiku "Patio"

 PATIO


dots dimpled water
skated by dragonfly toes
dining in winter

popping corn buttered
a December golden night
the fire makes music

season's open boil
the glow, the coals so gentle
no crackle, no flame quiet

Haiku Anomie Series


 

Haiku Anomie Series



1
an invoice for voice
anomie amoral
re-identify

2
a voice an invoice
no named alienation
winter's discontent

3
Janis gates of fall
a new opening door
scenes only partial

4
a voiced lien-ed nation
an in-alienation
invoiced amoral

5
anomie unknown
anxiety invoiced voice
that painful autumn

6
no pearls of wisdom
like an Adonis garden
that admiral of the red

7
tie the garters piece
golden sands of Pactolus
and paint the lily

8
sophist sophistry
sorites stitched and gathered
treed leaves of autumn


9
anomie invoice
not falling for whisper
deaf sabaism

10
cap of liberty
phrygian standard
again tale gone wrong

Whispers and Shadows



Whispers and Shadows


whispers and shadows
afraid to sleep in the dark
October's music

the joyous search
afraid to sleep in the dark
conflict-ions abound

every whisper
like shadows slinking away
the tensions surrounds

there is no picture
like the one never painted
a vesper unseen

shadows and whispers
under evening gray shades
a night overcast

ventriloquism
from a place to what is seen
a gauze a shadow

direct from a sound
covering and darkening
a breeze a whisper

the unseen music
 hinting a shade of evening
touches like a kiss

OCTOBER'S BALM


A MENDOZA, 2016

 

 

October's Balm



gently a sweet balm
whispering a cobalt breeze
a balm October

layered coal so still
rising shadow to autumn
touching as a whiff

as clouds become smoke
cyan fading curtain like
edging out sunlight

cotton like furling
as the water coloured sky
washes in light stokes

in airily tints

the gloss of the reflected
of evening autumn

October balm soothes
brushing a face, heart and soul
sunset breeze Tontine

Ripples in the Fog


 

 

October Haiku Series


Ripples in the fog




last will be first
as ripples are tend to be
these October sheets

rolling light gathers
as wind kissed autumn's lover
dotted by whispers

there in the cover
of water's rhythm dancing
as fall's sliding breath

a nod to Autumn
the simmering love kiss
as it passes by

her sounds never heard
as if scraped by a lover
gathering to himself

along the open path
an expanse of a season
now the orange promise

September anew


 

 

September Anew






September anew

glistens as cloud and sunshine

sweeping open sky



September renews

in the coolness of breezes

sails of air's delight



September blue skies

azure celestial stone

in strokes as light clouds



September opens

to indigo to cyan

to Alice's blue


September anew

as a carpi capricious

renewed as a blue
