A Song of Love


Do you love me, a song reverberated in her ear
Do you love me, do you hear
A melody, an old verse thumping against her heart
A melody, together with song from the start

Trapped in a mood, a mood of tangled lyrics cascading down
Trapped within a collage of pictures simulating love with sound
Love set to rhythms of solid drum beats
Love set to harp strings where angel wings meet

you love me, she wished
you love me, she proclaimed
you love me, she sang

Thanksgiving Blessings To All

Photograph by Kathleen S. Shattuck

Seeing to the future, all wonders of light, miracles happen, not out of sight.
Fill up your lungs, go towards day, expel the dangers far, far away.


Hallowed the hills of saints gone by, precious the keepers of truth over lie.
Never forsake, always accept, for the blessings of giving will never reject.


Hold out your hand, one to another, forgiveness is near, when held as a brother.
Nature’s bounty, and nature's glory, extend your hearts and erase all worry.


Grasp the hand, hug to your breast, the ache of your heart will now be at rest.
Embrace the goodness of Thanksgiving kindness, holding one another, dear in their shyness.

NO MERCY!

May God have NO mercy on this man and this administration!
They deem themselves God, with every ministration.

Everything is a joke to Trump, he can't hear the cries…
I'll be glad when he's gone, and laugh at his demise.

No tears for this man, no sorrow came...
Just a room full of followers, and a country full of shame.

Awaken Love, My Haiku for you

Causes loom and grow
Feelings venture to destruct
Fists tighten in hate

Cast away darkness
Allow light to waken love
Bend souls in respect
