verse by ThunderWolf
~ HAIKU XXVl ~
Dance a winter's song
While you sing a Spring's dance and
Confuse everyone.
Confuse everyone
with nice enigmatic smiles
A mystical pose ...
A mystical pose
may look weird but it fosters
Curiosity
Curiosity
and true imagination
Makes inventive minds
Makes inventive minds
and aids in problem solving ..
Real necessity
Real necessity
fosters new innovations
Ingenuity ...
Ingenuity
Is a hen wearing "Depends"
No need for a nest.
No need for a nest
when you have longings to roam
Like a restless wind ...
Like a restless wind
Thoughts stir the leaves of our minds ..
Uncovering things
Uncovering things
by exploring the ages
Secrets of the past
Secrets of the past
Flit like ghosts through today's thoughts ..
Demanding notice
Demanding notice
a portent may appear twice
moving past unseen ...
Moving past unseen
that "Jolly Old Elf" cries out,
"A Merry Christmas!!"
A Merry Christmas
This time of our Savior's birth
Wishing Peace on earth ...
Wishing Peace on earth
and joy in all things given
To men of good will
To men of good will
Creator's divine Blessings
flow abundantly
Flow abundantly
like a mountain stream in Spring
Cool waters of life
Cool waters of life
falling softly from Heaven
Rebirth flourishes ...
Rebirth flourishes
As earth renews it's promise
Spring follows Winter
Spring follows Winter
Remaining constant 'midst our ...
crazy mixed up world
Crazy mixed up world
Keeps right on turning around
The circle's complete
The circle's complete
Excluding dull obtuse squares
Stuck in boring ruts ...
Stuck in boring ruts
With wheels uselessly spinning
Going nowhere fast ...
Going nowhere fast
on a meandrous journey
The vagabond roams ...
The vagabond roams
Following the fairy path
Through enchanted woods
Through enchanted woods
Unicorns play hide and seek
whilst Gryphons keep watch ...
Whilst Gryphons keep watch
Little people paint flowers
with glowing colors
With glowing colors
stars vie across midnight skies
Which will shine brightest ...?
Which will shine brightest?
Eyes of a woman in love ...
A man's pink bald pate?
A man's pink bald pate
is intriguingly sexy ...
Truly beguiling
Truly beguiling
Are the dancing, leaping flames
In an open fire.
In an open fire
fiery mesmerizing flames
Shadow Vulcan's realm ...
Shadow Vulcan's realm
with billowing black forge smoke
Thick as inky fog.
Thick as inky fog
atmospheric pollution
Darkens Earth's future
Darkens Earth's future
Like a car's tinted windows ..
Evil black hatred
Evil black hatred
an insidious madness
Dwells in twisted minds
Dwells in twisted minds
and plastic cups in the fridge ...
Green moldy garbage
Green moldy garbage
never a pleasant topic
Should be avoided ...
Should be avoided
Like a nest of angry wasps ..
Women at a sale
Women at a sale
Presents free entertainment
Live and unrehearsed ...!
Live and unrehearsed
Squealing, ripping, opening of
Kids' birthday presents
Kids' birthday presents
brings crescendos of giggles
'midst youthful delight
'Midst youthful delight
The minutes tick swiftly past
To sad adulthood
To sad adulthood
Dig your spurs in and ride tough
'cause time's a wastin' ...!
'Cause time's a wastin'
Don't go a burnin' daylight.
Get along doggies.
Get along doggies
Take courage, you're almost there
The end of the trail
The end of the trail
Is just the beginning of
A new adventure
A new adventure
will fire the heart and spirit
Like an untamed wind ...
Like an untamed wind
Laugher sweeps over you and
Takes your breathe away
Takes your breathe away
In those inspiring moments
Caught in God's rapture
