ORANGE HAIKU

The orange feeling so small,
not hearing the sun say,
“Wow, I helped make that!”

PURPLE HAIKU

Purple,
the color of blueberries and raspberries....
Embarassed, I'm not ready.

GREEN HAIKU

Spring, pregnant earth
gives birth, the arrival
of a billion pointing blades and leaves.

WHITE HAIKU

Snow falling all night,
in the morning no backyard junk,
Divine Eraser.

BLACK HAIKU


Dark, dark, night, seeing neither
the forest nor the trees,
only You.

YELLOW HAIKU

Yellow flowers and crayons,
needing contrast to be seen,
“Mira!” cries the child.

RED HAIKU


Blood flowing, heart pumping,
an unnoticed friend,
till something goes wrong.
