Thursday

by Dawn Pisturino

A strange and beautiful day!

The sun breaking through morning clouds,

Rosy and lazy,

Parting slowly to make way

For their golden-haired brother.

I feel you with me.

One soul, indivisible, and I know

You will never be happy without me,

And I will never be happy without you.

I feel you with me,

And my heart shines as brightly as the sun,

Breaking through the clouds of my misery.

I feel you with me,

And I am blessed and whole again,

A woman without regret,

A woman without shame.

I feel you with me,

And I know that no matter what happens,

We will never be separated again.

Haiku for the New Year

 

Haiku for the New Year

by Dawn Pisturino

New Year's

New Year's scurries in

On tiny feet, quiet as

A mouse at midnight.

Mercury

Good luck came swiftly

On Mercury's flying boots,

A Roman windfall.

January First

January first

Brings new hope, new love, new faith

In a failing world.

Gifts

Gifts of gentle words

Calm the raging sea inside

Your turbulent heart.

God

God is larger than

The universe, standing watch

Over all of us.
