Morning
Dove cries at first light
That first morning without you
My heart still tender

Willow
Buds contemplating
Spring’s gentle warming, light air.
An unexpected
Cold snap would be their demise.
Zapping sap and strength from boughs.

Naked Anticipation
She awaits his touch
Just as winter awaits spring
Petals unfolding
In response to CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI, Carpe Diem #696: Nudity
Rain
Rivulets of rain
Cascade down my heaving breast
Arms outstretched with joy
