Shiver : Haiku stuck on the fridge

Between rain and sun

Skin shivers with the thunder

Of her sleeping breath.

"Some Things" - by my brother, Richard T. Krause

"Some things drift away in the wind, everyone watching it in awe.
Some things drift away in the water, everyone looking in wonder.
And some things, well some things stay put to be seen and never forgotten."

- Richard T. Krause

My Old Dog

'My Old Dog'

I said good bye to an old friend last week. My dog Allie. A mutt with a crippled foot, sort of a long haired dachshund but not quite. She found me in downtown Cushing nearly 11 years ago and I took her home with me. She added much to my life that I have yet to fully fathom.

One week after taking her home I had a heart attack and in the ensuing weeks and months while Karen was working herself to death to nurse me back to health and keep the house and business afloat, this… Continue

Cold and damp and dark
All seep into aching bones.
I can not get warm.

I cannot promise
That anything will not change
Except for my love.

Crow cries "Caw Caw Caw"
Under a dark silver sky
And then flies away.

Talking to one another...

I posted this today on my Facebook page and Lisa suggested I posted it here, too. So, here it is:





My stomach hurts.



For better or worse, I am an emotional being. Are you familiar with the color gels used on stage lights? Those films placed over plain ol' white lights to create different colors on a stage? Emotions are the gels through which pretty much every thing comes to me or leaves from me.



Most of the time I'm alright with this. Others are too. Many… Continue

My nose is frozen;
Also my ears and my ass.
I do hate winter!

My gorgeous baby,
What did you do to your face?
Two rings in your lip!

I'm a little scared,
And I'm very excited.
A new day awaits.

What just happened here?
I'm minding my own business
And the world gets weird.

Me being profoundly profound :)

On my way to work, my mind was on the go, go, go! I'm a person thatbelieves in signs, if you will. Sometimes, these signs are shown to meon actual signs. I spend a lot of time reading, even when driving; I'mreading the signs/billboards along the way and then playing letter/wordgames, it keeps my mind occupied....especially because I haven't had aworking radio in my car for years now lol. I digress, so anyway...Idon't see hidden messages on every sign I read, if I did...my mindwould explode…

Two weeks

I just realized that with the posting of tonight's haiku, I now have only 2 weeks left to go with this project. I'd just like to admit now that it's been harder than I thought to write over 350 haikus. But it's also been very easy because at times they have almost written themselves.  Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you would stick around and see this thing through to the end with me.  Thanks.

A brass whale can't swim.

A leaded glass bird can't fly.

I'm the right stuff now.

Where Do I Belong?



Thoughts spill from my mind

But my mind is still overflowing

There's no room inside my head

I'm trying to sort things out

Just trying to make sense of it all

 

I look to the left

I look to the right

I can't tell which direction I'm supposed to go

I thought I knew where my life was headed

And then…

Every Heart Has A Song



There's a song within all of us

Many try to quiet the tune

Keeping it to themselves

And others let it be heard by anyone willing to listen

Proclaiming who they are and how they feel

 

When people let their songs be played together

It can create a symphony

Melodies and harmonies working together

To create the…
