He wondered as a lonely hunter
who chased after the North Star
Fluttering in the flickering twilight,
vanishing in the pale hues of sunlight,
with a twinkle in the hunter’s eyes.

Delirious, Sweet
The massive hands, mounting forte
The delicate touch, teasing pianissimo
The untamed passion, a lover’s whispers
Descend on her like great furious waves,
Pound on her like wild tropical torrents
And fill her trembling fear of rapture
In the force of music with pleasure.

Achilles’ Horse
Blow high, blow low
Clouds above, clouds below
The divine horse sired by
The west wind flies in the sky
Across the Milky Way
Above the weariless sun
And waxing moon in wonders
With which the heaven is chimed

Christmas Haiku
The light of the star
Wins of the dark earth
And covers the manger
With the rays of mirth.

Pretender
For those colorful charms,
Those dazzling deeds,
Those sweet smiles,
Those thousand praises –
He is what he is not,
Clothed in all those
Goodly falsehoods.

Glass Castle
Reason dictates, Emotion rebels
As Sense looks over the duel
On the terrace of the glass castle
And tells the queen, “Follow your Heart,
Not your Head before the chaos of revolt
deafens your Ears and blinds your Eyes
so gorgeous, too late!”
