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.
