Haikus and Tankas

Exploding Fragrance
Flavoring the afternoon
Yankee flames light room

Pebble on a beach

Alone, covered in white sand

One for your pocket

And there is a world

You will find just out of reach

But irrelevant

Pebble on a beach

Alone, covered in white sand

One for your pocket

And you will forget it

Only to find it later

And there is a world

You will find just out of reach

But irrelevant

And then a place you will find

So near it will feel like home
