While looking through my now barely-used Twitter profile, I came across haiku and a few other bits of verse.
When still, my great lake
Reflects a calm myriad...
Superior blues
A sunlit sandbar
Waves rippling with molten gold
Feels like paradise
Lilacs and Lupines
Bloom in my favorite shades
Brightening my day
Lilac and Lupine
Blooms mark the seasons changing
From spring to summer.
The rising sun shines
Over Lake Superior
In a silver streak
The sun bruised the sky,
Rising over distant hills.
Light left in its wake.
Watch the rising sun
Chase away each twinkling star
I once wished upon.
Restless,
I slip out.
Escaping my solitude,
Seeking more.
Moon called.
Looking up into the darkness, I see stars glittering.
And a Dipper overhead, tilted
As if it is responsible for releasing the sparkling snow in my winter wonderland.
The waning moon rose
With a golden, harvest glow
Fading to silver.
