the measure of man
is not by inches and feet
but yards hard fought for.
Haikus
torched path
a long way from home.
voices whisper confusion.
a torch for the path?
final junction
not knowing the way
the warrior walks onward.
destination ends.
canvas colors
burn the dead flora.
so that new flowers may bloom.
colored new canvas.
soul song
the blue chirping bird
sings whether anyone hears.
a prayer from the soul.
worry nought
the leisure classes.
to live for joy not worry.
freedom for passion.
