Bruce Levine – 5-7-5 Haiku Journal

Haiku by Bruce Levine

Winter lingers on
Snow falls on another day
Waiting for the spring

Harbingers of spring
New transitions held at bay
Rain and snow today

Snowy day today
Winter will not go away
When will spring begin

Stream of consciousness
Flighty as a butterfly
Floating in the wind

A rough-tough creampuff
Proud to be a Gemini
Basking in the light

Still walked like a duck
Grounded by her memories
Of dancing en l’air

By Bruce Levine

Sunrise wakes the day
While dozing rejuvenates
The mind and the soul

Winter’s twists and turns
One day hot and one day cold
Oddest year to date

Playing in the snow
Happy dogs and children laugh
Time yet till the spring

Frozen shades of white
Snowflakes travel on the wind
Sculptures drifting by

By Bruce Levine

Love in C major
Simple harmonic structure
Simple truth of love

Golden days ahead
Frozen in the afterglow
Love eternal lasts

Our lives are a wire
Plugged into technology
Not humanity

The old well is deep.
But not as deep as sadness
that has no ending.

By Mike Everley

Sadness pervades me
Longing for another time
Happy days of yore

By Bruce Levine

Too much time away
Too many lonely hours
Memories sustain

Happiness of home
Planning on going back there
Never leave again

Following footpaths
Virgin whiteness abounding
Through acres of snow

Winter unleashing
Its tempestuous moments
In snow-covered hills

Snowfall not ending
Through hours unrelenting
Mountains creating
