first marital row
the silence between them
is deafening

A family friend, Joe, just passed away leaving his wife Daisy and their only child Elizabeth. My heartfelt condolences to them and here are my haiku/tanka poem offerings. May he rest in peace and join in His resurrection!
my friend Daisy shares
her childlike emptyness
on her husband's death
meantime Liz scrawls
her love and affection
in a letter she wrote
to her dad the day
before he died

My new work from the latest issue of
World Haiku Review, March 2003
GUN VIOLENCE, a haiku sequence
seeming epidemic
random deadly shootings
in the land of the free
color them red
innocent victims
of gun violence
staring puzzled
at a deep black abyss
kins of murder victims
gun control debate
who's to blame: the gun
or the trigger man
