You're the lox to my
bagel, ice to my tea, the
cappu to my ccino.

Look toward the sea, the 
trees. You never left Eden.
It's all around you.

Throughout this life you
are not just you, but many 
different shades of you.

Another day that's 
pure and perfect despite the
uphill climb I face.

See everything the
other sees through their eyes and never
go to bed angry.

Some days feel like a 
magic carpet ride. Others feel 
like the long walk home.

"Sanity and
happiness are an impossible
combination."
-Mark Twain

Cry, frown, furrow your
brow, fear, question, hide your eyes,
stop and smell the roses.

I kind of believe 
that it takes a very brave
person to be kind.

The sky's the limit!
Or maybe it's not. Maybe
there is no limit.

This haiku's based on
real events. Names were changed to
protect the innocent.

Sing, dance, make love,
jump for joy, frolic, smile, laugh,
stop and smell the roses.

Dearest Mitt,
I'm not into your dick, so, please, 
lay off my vagina.

I love dreaming the
dreams that I've dreamt over 
and over again.

Nothing in this world
matters except for the things
that really matter.

Living, "I love you"
is more important than just
saying, "I love you".

I was more a 
Sweet Valley High girl than a
Babysitter's Club girl.

Maybe we're not 
approaching our death, but
approaching another life.

Mirror, mirror you
don't have to tell me. I'm the
coolest of all ladies!

We walk through this world
never aware of the wake 
we leave in our stead.

I'd roam the earth and
skies for you. For they mean 
nothing next to your love.

Live your life as if 
each day were a work of art.
A work in progress.

Smell the smells, taste the 
tastes, see the sights. Today is 
another new day.

The crows nest near my
bedroom. We rest together.
We wake together.

Never hang your head in
the shadow of others. Your
own is dark enough.

There's no love other
than this one because I could
love no other you

I pushed a baby
out of my vagina and
it was beautiful!

I like to keep my
kids in their place; dirty, naked,
loud and happy.

The candied apple
looked beautiful and grotesque
smushed into the ground.

Thinking about the 
sun and how it travels so
far to meet my face.

The heat goes into
my skin, melts my mind a bit,
comes back out my pores.

I wait, somewhat
impatiently, while the stork flies
by me yet again.

The train sounds each day
and night reminding me it's
a new day and night.

Admiring the
blue bird. She never worries
when her eggs will hatch.

Earth fades into the 
trees that fade into the sky
who gives way to sun.

We make a good team.
The most unlikely of friends.
The snake and charmer.

Here's a fabulous
haiku for you, but sadly,
now it is all done.

Sometimes my writing
haiku is the only way 
to say, "I love you."

And the fairy godmother
said, "Girl, get your shit together.
You're a mess!"

It's true you can't win
every race, but you can sure 
in the hell try, right?

"Find your talents and
use them. It's doing nothing
that's the enemy."

I don't always fly
straight, but, you bet your ass, 
I get where I'm going.

I want to run away,
but everywhere I go
my heart still follows.

We use the word lost
when soemthing's gone, but once there
it's never forgot.

I love hearing the 
crackle of embers when she
smokes her cigarette.

Tell me all your stories.
I want to hear them.
Every last one of them.

If corporations
are people does that mean
people are property?

Romantic love starts
with friendship, respect and laughter.
Ends in passion.

Did you ever think
you'd be right here, where you are,
in this life, right now?

The breeze is cool.
The sun is hot. The grass is soft 
and I feel heavy.

Somewhere in outer
space there's an alien life form
that thinks you're weird, too.

I think those crows were
squawking at me, but I feel
so anti-social.

Did the woman of 
32, 000 years ago 
cry like me, too?

It is not me who
writes these lines, but the hand of
the spirit through me. 

I never felt so 
close to god 'til I created
life with my lover.

I am super human.
I'm a human inside
another human.

I can't look away 
from those eyes when they are 
looking at me like that.

The day came in and
went out so suddenly and
right before my eyes.

A love so intense
even Morticia and Gomez 
Addams would blush.

The light of the day
reflects my living soul. The
dark finds me quiet.

Gifts from the heart are
sometimes found on the ground when 
you least expect it.

Hiawatha and 
Minnehaha walked the land for peace.
Loved in between.

"Stop watering the 
weeds in your life and start
watering the flowers." 
                       -Anonymous

That was a dream. Or
maybe a memory. I guess,
it's kind of the same.

All the colors of 
this world, so diverse, make up 
the land like our skins.

"I am always doing
things I can't do. That's how
I get to do them."
                     -Pablo Picasso

The sun hugged the 
lovers while the lovers hugged 
each other in the sun.

Realizing the sun is
middle-aged makes me feel
so very trivial.

The best part of my
life has been sharing it with
a life I created.

The first mate does all
the grunt work, but the captain 
goes down with the ship.

Belong to this world.
The world needs you, needs what you
bring, needs who you are. 

Love's eternal.
Loving someone sets in motion 
something that never ends.

My mouth is probably
bigger than the rest of me, 
but I'm proud of it.

Blessed to be part of
the ancient acts of making
love and growing life.

It's hard to think
about others, but when I do
I think better of me.

"You really are the
only shadow standing in
your own sunshine"
                       -Fabio Viviani

The slow, hurry up and
wait of the walk and run 
of every new day.

I had a memory.
I thought it was my daughter's,
but it was mine.

A good day spent is
a day spent tying knots in 
green blades of tall grass.

The little girl caught
us smiling at each other, 
so she smiled, too.

In the sky some clouds
are white, some are grey. Others
look like they're on fire.

This life isn't complete
without someone fabulous
to share it with.

I'm hip to your dirty
tricks, vampire. Glamour 
someone else's eyes.

Time to face the change,
but which way? The change can come
from any damn where!

A true treasure is
a friend who thinks of you as 
a rare, fine treasure.

The sun is rising.
Reminding me of new life.
Life in this old world.

A loved book is a 
book you've owned three
separate copies of.

I hate it when I
think of a great haiku and
then I forget it.

If you don't think there's
happiness on earth then you're 
not kissing enough.

If eyes are the window
to the soul then I can see
the world through yours.

Don't worry so about
the future. It'll be here 
before we know it.

We go 'round and 'round,
beginning to end, forward,
backward forever.

I'm not always sure
who my friends are, but I'm
certain of who they're not.

Some days I wake and
I can't believe this world 
around me is for real.

If being old means
not liking Justin Bieber
then, cool, I'll take it.

"I couldn't love you
any better. I love you
just the way you are." 
                          -Billy Joel

I fill full of love
looking at the beautiful
lines of your body.

I've never been 
conservative. Not with my heart,
spirit or my goods.

I may be years older
than you, my child, but I'm 
not always smarter.

There's nothing like a
papa's arms around you when
you need it the most.
