Please do not blame me
I really had little choice
I had to move on
I would have faded away
Need to be away to grow

A place to show my work

Please do not blame me
I really had little choice
I had to move on
I would have faded away
Need to be away to grow

In driest desert
Life finds a way to exist
We must do the same
With strength, we will endure this.
Hope blooms where least expected
AAA/MAD 1/12/25

Crisp salty sea air
Birds rise high without a care
Squawking if they dare
Waves crash on the sandy shore
Sunset paints the sky in gold
AAA/MAD 1/12/25

Brainstorming haikus
In my current moments choose
Mind burns in my shoes.
Thoughts like rivers flowing,
Ideas start to take shape.

Does dirt become clean
After being washed up, or
Does it remain dirt?
Can water change its nature?
Is there a chance for rebirth?

Will horses run free
On never-ending pastures
Faster than the wind
Gracefully, they roam so wide.
With joyful hearts, they gallop.

Harvest wheat dances
As the prairie breezes blow
Creating ripples
Under the golden sun’s glow.
Fields alive, a vibrant show.

Voice raised in anger
Bad intentions are in mind.
Violence will follow
Feelings will be damaged and
It will be hard to repair
AAA/MAD 1/10/25

Better than the rest
Left out in the heartless cold
Many neglected
Dreams are lost within shadows.
Hope flickers like a small flame.

Where did our rain go
Winter seasons really slow
Now nothing will grow
The ground is parched, sky is gray.
Each passing hour, the sun shines.
AAA/MAD 1/8/25

Fierce winds fan hot flames
Fires race up and down hillsides
Where is the relief
Devastation for many
Compassion is needed now
AAA/MAD 1/8/25

You count all the words
While I’ll count out all the days
Then divide by two
The answer cannot explain
all the joy & love that we have
AAA/MAD 1/8/25

Singing in the dawn
Nature’s joyous serenade
Melody of life
Everyone join the parade
Dancing to celebrate life…

Harmony’s embrace
Strings vibrating in concert
Music’s perfect blend
An ensemble’s wall of sound
Penetrates all who will hear…
MAD/AAA 01/03/2024

Electric spark’s dance
Sensation of joy and hope
Shiver of delight
Tingling from head to toe
Butterflies fill our stomachs…
