Canyon
Ancient layers,
Icing of virginal snow,
Eons stretch between.

A long time ago I thought I would become a chemist! I have been in the world of science throughout my years. I think writing and particularly haiku and its forms are like chemistry. They are a distillate of a larger mass and require some technique and work to arrive there. I am a chemist/poet.
Canyon #1
Canyon #1
Alone in wonder
Distant beams root deep within
today’s white carpet.

Always hope
Always hope
Brown, drab, unless storms
deliver flakes, drops, manna
for green tomorrows.

Charmer

Charmer
Gambel’s Quail gambol,
sport envious topknots,
charm desert dwellers.
Desert sound, a haiku poem
A distant cooing
“who cooks for you?” gently floats
from a white-winged dove.

Citrus homage, a haiku poem
Sweet smell of blossoms
Tangelo, grapefruit, lemon
Plump fruit yields its juice

A pour

yellow-orange molten bronze

Lightness
the sun penetrates
the heaviness overhead
pathways to dreams

Fragments of sunshine
struggle to beam, to kindle
a perishing soul.

Rain
after the shower
our desert delicacy
pungent creosote
