GRACEFUL IN PINK

HAIKU

Flirtatiously pink

A one leg balancing act

Supple yet hungry

Painting by Fred Barnett

FLUTTERING NOTIONS

HAIKU

Perched on a bare branch

Worthy of seeing miracles

That transform sad hearts

ABRACADABRA ROSE

My Friend, a rose for you today

HAIKU

Festive swirling petals

Incidental Christmas colors

Thankfully missing thorns

A ROSE IN SNOW

HAIKU

When I look for God

And find a rose after first frost

There I find Him

TEA WARMING

HAIKU

The kettle whistles

Steam releases lemon ginger

My nose begins to tickle

A Bing Image

CLEAR COMFORT BROTH

HAIKU

When my stomach hurts

hot chicken broth with leeks and garlic

Simmer on the stove
