Perhaps you couldn't find enough haiku poems to feed your mind. In this quiet space you can preview what may end up in my next book.

my StarWars earrings

they wait for me in a cup

can't wear them at work.

July Fourth weekend

one officer died

still sunshine reigned.



Chicago was great

Jen came back alive

while eighteen families

mourned.



2 flowerbeds weeded, 1 painting finished!

2 loads of laundry, 1 sink full of dishes,

2 chapters of a book, 1 clean house,

AND went to a family reunion.



Music like a Miyazaki film

as pillar clouds float across a Disney blue sky

perfect night to a stormy day.

going slowly
like pushing a wheelbarrow uphill
is reading Steinbeck.

it must be done slowly
reading poetry
catching fish
making love.

New book idea

In order to support all the the cafe related poetry I am starting a new book, "cafe Haiku". It will include all the poems written at work while there are no customers or my mind is wandering. Look for my first book "Thirty and Single" sometime in 2015.

painfully quiet
eternity per minute
sunny afternoon

you are entitled
to nothing if you are rude
so try courtesy.

shock and amazement

a busy week, then haiku?

what's a girl to do!

spurts of customers

no real big money makers

haiku kind of day.



desires float through

a flower, rain, something green!

spring does take so long.

1-21-14 @ work

Remember the verse
"the wind blows where it pleases"
very true today.

Silly coworkers
make jokes, sing nonsense songs, laugh
good clean foolery.

Constant beep beep beep
"men working" in atrium
What artist is next?
~ IMA entrance, next art installation will be at the end of February. Come visit me!

Shudder

Shudder at the snow
memories trapped inside.
It just keeps coming.

Today

the wind has a dance partner

snow.
