*AUTUMN OF HAIKUS*
With the smell
of new-cut grass
wafting in from outside,
waiting alone in the great,
oak-paneled library,
the terrified
Violetta thought
once more of Doctor Ken,
the man who had
taught her how
to feel.
He was now,
according to Countess Genevieve,
a prisoner in the
very castle
he had once owned.
Then came the thud of fists,
a muffled cry,
fighting on the stairway,
and she dropped the
brimming wine glass
heedlessly on the rug.
He was here!
“Our love will outlast eternity,
my
angel — my porcelain angel!”
he boomed, oblivious of
the lava-red eyes
at the window,
and as the truth — the whole truth
slowly came home to
her,
she wordlessly let her body
melt against his own.
A mother and child
Hear the movements of the earth,
Twilight is ending.
Eagles fly above
Weeping in forgotten lands,
An old day is gone.
The lucky youths play
As hopeful souls recline.
With swing on solid oak
Beneath the rooted grass,
Where tender sparrows furrow
Nesting pools of delight.
And waiting old women
Feeling the warmth
of the sunlight,
Unseen by others.
