Another year’s come
I welcome it with gusto
Though without fanfare
Why should I celebrate that
Which comes with or without me
Still I am thankful
And I am truly hopeful
For a better year

Echoes Of Laughter
Echoes of laughter
Smiling faces of children
–Innocence at play
Sights, sounds of another time
When being a kid was cool
The cries of hunger
Tears streaming down sunken cheeks
–Modern travesty
While the rich still get richer
Children starve for no reason

Worldly Goods Shed (Haiku)
Worldly goods shed
Striving for a simpler life
~~ Unneeded to live

Our Future – A Tanka
Lay your head down child
Know that you are our future
Your shoulders hunching
Punishment for excesses
We were too weak to curtail
