Our flag proudly flies

holding men and women in

its bold stars and stripes

Colors in the sky

Together, we “ooh” and “ahhh”

Independence Day

Could it be, perhaps,

a red feathered friend resides

in our neighborhood?

Cock-a-doodle-do wakes us –

Dreaming or reality?

Fair Day – Double Haiku

spinning rides invite

screaming amusement for all

proceed before meals

blazing sun follows

as we join crowded chaos

cool pond entices

You’re Not Alone

When your sky is dismal and you’re feeling low
unlock the doors to your soul
and allow love to flow
Lean on a shoulder from someone who cares
as they hold you in their daily prayers
Open your mind to new hope in your heart
picking up pieces that once fell apart
Find strength in His Love and
allow your eyes to see the Light above
Let His embrace warm your inner core
Let your path be brightened
so darkness lingers no more
