Poetry

Flower

Lone little faerie
Dancing in a mountain breeze
With wings of petals.

Emotionless

Here is one last chance
To prove to the ice goddess
That you’re cold enough.

Percussion

Plitter, a-platter
The first of all spring raindrops
Landing on my roof.

Talked to By a Stranger

“That is the ticket.
Follow me, young lady, I’ll
Help you find the way.”

Paper Route

Zing of a paper
Flying through the morning air
From the new pageboy.

Worry

Chew on the pencil
So nobody ever knows
How worried you are.

Fall

Falling to the ground
Twirling come the autumn leaves
Which soon coat the earth.

Clock

A-ticking away
In perpetual motion
The grandfather clock.

What is wrong?

Why are you crying?
Are you not glad to see me?
What has he done now?

Heartsong

The song’s in full swing
So I now begin to sing
With words in my heart.

Fulfilling a Wish

Tomorrow we begin
To build the wooden treehouse
Of your childhood dreams.

Childish

“What are you doing?
Stop climbing my bookshelves, and
Now come eat your soup.”

Yes, I figured it would annoy you if you clicked, say, 'Heartsong' and got a 3-line... *thinks* tercet? Well, a 3-line, one stanza poem. I do two-stanza quatrain poems, but I'm not that bad. *Grins*

Individual notes for each one, you say? Not gonna happen. But I will say that I know haikus are supposed to be nature poems - but they're too fun to not expand into other areas as well. And, hey, poetry is poetry. It may not be a haiku if it's not about nature, but it's still a poem. :P

'Talked to By a Stranger' freaks me out.

The first five were written April 3rd, 2004; the rest are from [I think] the next day.
