Make the time to love

A heart forsaken
Withers and dies from neglect
Make the time to love
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
By judging others
We miss the miniscule spark
Genius in the flesh
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Heaven’s moonlight shines
A soft glow on sleeping earth
Divine renewal
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Fold into my arms
‘Tis were you’ve always belonged
Love is in the stars
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Give from a full heart
As if life depends on it
Because it just might
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
The silent killer
Ebola the fifth horsemen
Can we stop its reign
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Giving of the heart
Leaves one’s self vulnerable
There’s no greater thrill
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Blindness in daylight,
You see but choose to ignore
Ignorance is bliss
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Sting of Scorching Sands (Haiku)
Sting of scorching sands
Turning silica to glass
Natures melting pot

Crystal and Fine Wines (Senryu)
Crystal and fine wines
Regalia of the snooty
The harder they fall
