It takes a lot to heal
in a broken world
that wants you to pay with your life for every cure.

Evening greeted me
a song of frogs and crickets
Merrily chirping into night

#DailyHaikuPrompt evening

Trees emerged with their
Blossoms of red, pink, and white
Perfume filling the air
#DailyHaikuPrompt blossoms

A sign of the times
Tall windmills in the distance
Slowly churning

#DailyHaikuPrompt windmill

New calf in the field
Looking up at the moon
And seeing stars

#DailyHaikuPrompt calf

Each morning in spring
Trees wake with new leaves
Reaching out

#DailyHaikuPrompt new leaves

Blades of grass
Bathed in light, cropped down
At the first sign of seed

#DailyHaikuPrompt grass

In the lamplight
We dance dangerously
Mirroring the flame

#DailyHaikuPrompt lamplight

Dear Hyacinth girls
April is the cruelest month
Birth from the dead ground

#DailyHaikuPrompt hyacinth

Clear skies overhead
Above protests and prayers
To the stratosphere

#DailyHaikuPrompt clear sky

Fire the next time
Raging against injustice
New hope emerges

#DailyHaikuPrompt fire

We go to the beach
To collect rocks and seashells
While some go for sun

#DailyHaikuPrompt beach

May you have comfort
That comes with knowing a warm bed
Is a luxury

#DailyHaikuPrompt comfort

It takes a while
To climb a mountain
One step at a time

#DailyHaikuPrompt mountain

In vivid color
Life and its wisdom gave me
Purple hyacinth

#DailyHaikuPrompt vivid

Spring is a rebirth
A chance to begin again
To blossom from dirt

#DailyHaikuPrompt birth

Full moon was so bright
Filled my garden with light
Gave the plants shadows

#DailyHaikuPrompt full moon

Rain came pouring in
Someone said it’s just drizzle
Carpet is still wet

#DailyHaikuPrompt drizzle

I hope everyone realizes that scrubbing historical references from web sites is no different than burning books

Soft kittens resting
In sunbeams in the big chair
Bellies full and warm

#DailyHaikuPrompt kitten

400 followers on here. Woot woot!

A soft breeze whispers
prayer through sycamore trees
Dream a little dream

#DailyHaikuPrompt soft breeze

Mustard on my hotdog
Results in it on my shirt
Woes of the Midwest

#DailyHaikuPrompt mustard

A wave of yellow and blues

Making waves. Painting by me.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie.

America, people. Freedom and stuff.

The late frost killed
Without remorse for tulips
Fogging up windows

#DailyHaikuPrompt late frost

In high school I had two classmates die from getting hit by cars after they chased after a bus on a foggy morning. Both tragedies scarred me and I’ll never look at fog or buses the same way.

Death on a foggy morn
A student late for the bus
Don’t chase after it

They’ll never see
Until it is too late for
Stopping

#DailyHaikuPrompt foggy morn

Warm sun on your skin
Promise of things to come
Fear breaking through clouds

#DailyHaikuPrompt warm sun
