Under Cloud Soaked Skies (Haiku)

Under cloud soaked skies

An aimless wanderer strolls

At peace with the world

Butterflies and Bees (Haiku)

Butterflies and bees
Swarm the rainbow of flowers
Falls Thanksgiving feast

Daybreak (Haiku)

Daybreak–breath rising
Frost, icy cold to the touch
Fall is in the air

Mountains Majesty (Tanka)

Mountains majesty

Purple in the setting sun

A glorious sight

Like the work of a master

Touched by the steadiest hand

Love Is Blind (Acrostic)

Last night I laid quietly by your side.

Only the sound of your breathing could be heard,

Very soft and low over the silence of night.

Enchanted was I by this simple act.

 

I thought back to when we first met,

So long ago in what seems like a previous life.

 

Beauty of your body and spirit enthralled me,

Love at first sight captured me,

In the many years since, it has not abated.

Never questioning fate we have become one–

Destined for eternity–as lovers in Heaven.

Coolness Of Morning (Haiku)

Coolness of morning
Welcomed after summer’s heat
Nature’s refreshment

Morning Symphony (Haiku)

Morning symphony
Songbirds greet the rising sun
Beautiful alarm

Giving Of The Heart (Senryu)

Giving of the heart

Leaves one’s self vulnerable

There’s no greater thrill

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

 

To Feel The Soil

To feel the soil

Rich and warm between fingers

Man planting his seed

Nurturing healthy body

With the fruits of his labor

For millennia

This was mans way to survive

Living off the land

We’ve lost our time tested path

Through the chaos–modern life

Dawn Cracks The Night Sky (Haiku)

Dawn cracks the night sky

Blanketing the earth in light

Nature called to rise
