Haikus

As I've said in the introduction of this blog, I would like to post poems everyday, even if they are small. Therefore, for today, I am posting several haikus, some of which were inspired by my fiance, Brian.

1. Simplicity:
I long to live in
Simplicity, I long to
Live in its beauty.

2. Thinking of the night:
Thinking of the night,
Of the jagged, inky trees,
I am awed and eased.

3. Cat:
Entwined together,
Cats' booted-feet are hidden,
In sleep, ears still pricked.

4. Dog:
Bounding down the way.
Eyes wide, prepared to play, the
Collie starts to bay.

5. Brian:
Your laugh confounds me,
Your humor is my savior,
Making me smile.


6. Brian's eyes:
Bright, cobalt mirrors
You peer from, paralyze me
And I cleave to you.

7. Our love:
Unfathomable,
Conceding, constant, candid,
Potent, and perfect.

8. Hands:
His devour mine,
With the severity of
Blanketing snowfall.

9. The slow dance:
Swirling round and round,
The lights and people obscure,
It is our moment.

10. On one knee:
Everyone is here,
The reason why isn't clear,
Until you appear.
