Apples and honey
rain drops dance, september walks
l’shana tova
beginnings straddle
endings, sorry crosses love
white cloud and still voice
apple-y honey, sweet
are friends who stretch oak-like arms
billow cool warmth, peace

i remember you
and the laughs, learning, stretching
i didn’t count then.
smell of hotel, but
I now lived there, two whole days
on nine-eleven.
I don’t remember
how or why i left… and stayed
gone, away, alone.
I only knew: go.
blue hits brown bark , feet concrete
sorry paled, I know.
thought i broke the world
that day. steel spokes, dusty hearts —
that concrete block of ache.
split we must. perhaps.
weren’t ready or able then.
new loves get those selves.
still… sorry i am
pale though it does, i cling. might
you remember me?
for more Washwords’ (and friends) haikus see Haiku You. Sorry all for the long hiatus… I will try to be back more regularly and more cheerily than these hearbreakingly beautiful September days have me today.
This week Haiku Friday is also Flashback Friday – ahh verizon.
Fios down again
son of a blankety blank
freakity freak freak
Tee Vee should just work
and yet, plug, unplug, rehook
splitter, wire, cord
No lights on the dash
so it’s deep breath in and call
three calls later: mike
He doesn’t hang up
or transfer me to wireless
We chat. for… hours
And when it turns out,
it was me not them, this time
I’m not proud, people
yah, forgot to check
other tv splitter? split
oops: my bad, this time.
still, verizon: one
me: twenty seven billion
but mike? he’s allight
