ACROSTIC-TANKA POETRY
OTHER POEMS: HAIKU - VOL. III
This section contains all my other poems written in the traditional haiku style with some slight changes in structure. Also included are poems written in other styles such as acrostic, fibonacci and palindromic.
Love or Desire
you are my desire
tender and soft to my touch
my eyes can't resist
your lips are as red
as the freshly picked apples
yet can not be kissed
when you were younger
folks are drawn to your fragrance
smell from heaven
now that you are old
you fall to the ground, shriveled
no one picked but me
our lives are coming
closer and closer to dawn
only love remains
