I was visiting U.C. Davis the other day and learned of the Social Sciences and Humanities building, which students called “The Death Star” where many got lost and discouraged. I took some photos of the building and was inspired to write this haiku.
“Concrete” labyrinth,
a maze through humanities,
to be lost… in thought.
UCD Students – May the 4th be with you!
Nice day, birds chirping,
food in hand, visited by
fans, squirrel stardom
Limbs embracing sky,
embracing me, as I lie…
beneath her beauty.
Nature’s carved beach wood,
various shapes and sizes,
original art.
Like little soldiers,
they stand guard, watching, waiting
atop Duck’s Island.
Man-made connection
bridging beauty of two lands…
a walk of wonder.
It was a relatively warm winter day, so I decided to go for a walk and observed the beauty of childhood wonder and joy. This is a poem based on my observation and reaction to such a sight. I did not have a camera or a phone with me, so the image is one I took from Google of a similar scenario. I hope you enjoy it =)
Beautiful warm day,
two kids run around a pole.
Life is good – childhood.
A little belated, but here’s a fun haiku and images from the Festival of Lights event! =)
Simple Christmas lights
brings psychedelic magic
when seen in 3-D.
She visits daily,
watching waves caress the shore,
a lovely goodbye.
Trains, they come and go,
People, they too, come and go,
Memories, they stay…
Whisperings
