All In A Day's Work

deadlines... urgent calls...

stack of papers on my desk

manic day at work

bring it on, i say

opting for vicissitudes

over stagnation

rest entices me 

coffee break is most welcome

all in a day's work

a spectral cover

reality's misty cloak

enigmatic veil

Summer Musings

sky imitates sea

days of eternal sunshine
and resonant waves

powdery white sand

and crystal clear blue waters...

who wants to go home?

golden sun lingers

time to bask in its glory

summer fun begins

[Image credit: Link] 

giggling and screaming
riding through gigantic flumes
with childish delight

[Image credit: Link]

traipsing barefoot as

the tide calmly hits the shore

reflective summer

Life's Splendor

the splendor of life

lies in the fire within that

awaits rekindling...

The Road Ahead

a time to reflect

severed ties there were many

what has gone awry?

a year marked by pain

perhaps the one ahead holds

a better promise...

that of beginnings

instead of tearful endings

long-lasting friendships

Musical Monday... What Moves You?



 

Leap Of Faith (A Haiku Collection)

 taking that big step

blindly towards the unknown

that's a leap of faith

an embattled soul

down a winding path of grief

tenacious spirit

if you ask me how

i got to where i am now

prayers led me here

 let go of your pain
healing will not come easy

learn to forgive first

and certain of what we do not see."

Heart's Strength

she comes here each day

in a state of dejection

waiting and hoping...

but not for long though

such is the human spirit

marked by resilience...

soon she wakes up to

face the rising sun with hope

second chance awaits...

for life does not end

where love comes to its sore death

a fresh start unfolds...
