“Distract”
Continually
drawn away from the moment.
Center. Refocus.

“Distract”
Haiku Wednesday – Option
“Option”
Run the mental math.
Uncover all potentials,
but wait not that one.

Haiku Sunday – Blue
“Blue”
Eyes bright with wonder
unveiling your thoughts and hopes
one glimpse at a time.
Steve D
Haiku Sunday – Meet
“Meet”
Months of separation,
disconnected, specter friends,
until met again.
Steve D
Haiku Sunday – Scruff
“Scruff”
Dignified eyebrows
and tuft beard gives little pup
an old dog spirit.
Steve D
Haiku Sunday – Know
“Know”
Watch expressions shift.
What thoughts flicker behind eyes.
Discovering you.
Steve D
Haiku Wednesday – Trudge
“Trudge”
Footprint sticks in mud
resisting every next step,
stamping down in spite.
Steve D
Haiku Sunday – Scatter
“Scatter”
A hundred marbles
clatter to the floor to clack
in all directions.
Steve D
Haiku Sunday – Social
“Social”
Mingling in a group
feels like a luxury we’ve
all but left behind.
Steve D
Haiku Sunday – Redirect
“Redirect”
Change and change again
like the course of a river,
ever persistent.
Steve D
