The Silence Resounds.

Gone but remembered.

Though forty-four years have passed,

The silence resounds.

A haiku a day for April - National Poetry Month.

Today is the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination. He gave voice to the voiceless and paid for it with his life. He is the definition of a hero. My gratitude for his wisdom and courage knows no bounds.

There's A Cat About.

There's a cat about,

Medowlark. A cat about -

Lurking in the duff.

Happy writing!

Duck, Rummy!

Okay, Rummy Duck -

Moby Dick is big and thick.

Now put some pants on!

A Mendo Weekend.

A Mendo weekend.

Aspirations for the day,

Right out the window.

A haiku a day for April - National Poetry Month.

We’ll see how it goes.

Unannounced With Flowers.

My long winter was bitter.

No rain to make the air less brittle.

No merry taps on my roof.

But spring inevitably comes.

Arriving unannounced with flowers.

Trailing an equinox rain.
