Even missing you
My heart is made so warm
By the light of love
Haiku

The moments with you
Whether hours or seconds
Are of countless worth
Haiku

Swiftly let my wind blow down
Untangle you from your rope
Bear you to a place unknown
Catch you in my hope
Lift you high above the clouds
Where sun and moon are bright
Never shadow, never fear
Only wondrous light

Swiftly let my river flow on
Wash away every blight
Bear you to a place unknown
Glistening brilliant and white
Take you through the twists and turns
Cool and brisk the stream
Til we find a tranquil pool
And float there in a dream  

Swiftly let my heart beat race
Can you hear it in my chest?
Bear you to a place unknown
As you lay your head to rest
Hold you safely in my arms
Drown your worry in my love
Run my fingers through your hair
Set you free on the wings of a dove

When you sleep my dear
I wonder how deep the color
Your dreams might display
A Haiku. I wanted the title to be longer than the poem itself! lol

Tears, words, and thoughts fail
To give the whole of my soul
Only shadow like
I want to be so near you
That my own heart breaks with yours
A tanka

Although spring be flowering
My heart will still be wishing
For your smile blossoming
And lips made full for kissing

Distance can seem burdensome
Difficult and oft lonely
Makes me sometimes quarrelsome
Hard edged and sometimes stony

Love is o'er us towering
Eyes and soul are still aglow
Patience it is powering
In this soft hope-lit meadow
This poem is a "ae freislighe". An  Irish poem form

In moments like this
All my delight is in you
You make my heart sing
A Haiku
