Modern Haiku XVIIV

pensive

Low slung stars glinting

Naked on two sleeping lovers

The sun: dead for hours. 


riverside

White sun lost behind clouds

A breeze against your upturned cuffs

How did you get here?


poppies

Bright red petals fall

From stem to stone floors cracked

Where your sad heart rests.
