The Fish Market (Haiku)

The fish market,
Centers of love making,
Whale tale pain.

A Piece of Me
11 August 2021

You have the biggest chunk,
I've kept the trash and junk.
Best parts, my heart and soul,
Held for you, kept them whole.
Seems not all the worst is gone,
Tried so hard for very long.
I need your hand to keep me strong.
My heart and soul to you belong.
Every day I do my best, loving you.
Soon the worst will be at rest.
A piece of me failed the test.
(I forgive you)

Wishing
11 August 2021

Wishing no pain or sorrow.
Joy and love for all tomorrow.
Pictures past of times we knew,,
Always bring love renewed.
Let me live blessed today,
Sharing with you wishes I prayed.

The Unlucky Pirate
10 August 2021

Born needs that poke and pry.
Hungered treasure other eyes.
Will to take, till love died.
Happiness fought from ding-a-lings,
Diamonds, bracelets, golden ring.

Other vultures heard her sing.
Many others just like her.
Picked partners she made purr.
Close, not smart enough,
To get away, with other’s stuff.
Began to treat her ruff.
Trouble followed everywhere.

Damage she left didn’t care.
Tried to blame cards and stars.
Attitude like one from Mars.
Nothing ever got her far.
Could never jump, that big bar.

Grab pirate’s top cigar.
Now hangs from pover-tree,
Still swings so needlessly.
Envies all she has lost.
Can’t acknowledge, just because,
Little brain, mostly claws.
Never found her Santa Cause.

Naked
8 July 2021

Walking in the crowd of naked,
You move worthless.
None notice your pride standing.
Your soulless hanging.

On This Mountain
16 June 2020

Passion drowns afar. Curse of mortal flame@@@@@@@
Wave of hell. Broken shoulder. Lame.
Pain. Despair. Rock of Sisyphus. Bend nor break.
On this mountain I will die for your sake.@@@@

Life, I cherish.
Stay true.
My struggle is not you. ()())()))))(((())())

Drifting
6 July 2021

In the peace of moon dust and starlight drifting,
Untethered from time and place,
I find the love and peace I take from you.
Blessed by living in your truth.
