January Haikus

1/1/12
On those restful days
When we do nothing at all
I feel we connect

1/2/12
I like our ritual
Even when you’re not around
Just coffee binds us

1/3/12
Cold has descended
To remind us it’s winter
How odd weather is

1/4/12
Tell me what you need
I’ll do my best to serve you
I am truly yours

1/5/12
Coming home so late
Disrupts the rhythm we have
I love your patience

1/6/12
Yes you wanted cake
And in a flurry it came
Fastest cake ever

1/7/12
Another road trip
Our only goal is sharing
and maybe some food

1/8/12
Your hand on my chest
Soothingly you say “relax”
The world stops for you

1/9/12
It’s time to prepare
As we go on a journey
To visit your world

1/10/12
The thought of flying
Never occurs to me here
It’s drug addled brain

1/11/12
Politics aside
Republicans disgust me
It is their dead eyes

1/12/12
True friends are comfort
There’s no judgement, only this
Shared love experience

1/13/12
A day of stories
Families are such fodder
A fascination

1/14/12
When I look at you
It’s the sense of home you bring
That keeps me happy

1/15/12
You don’t dance, you say
But I see you every day
All you do is dance

1/16/12
Your face glows brightly
Your touch heals the deepest wounds
Your lips sweet reward

1/17/12
Sleep comes to take me
I’m aware of you near me
I rest easily

1/18/12
It’s a mystery
How these past few years have flown
Yet time isn’t enough

1/19/12
It’s a dream come true
But it’s a reality
That I never dreamt

1/20/12
It’s the ease of it
How our togetherness flows
Even miles apart

1/21/12
More time for just us
We are deliciously trapped
Snow covers outside

1/22/12
Awareness alone
Improved my outlook on life
Wise one, I thank you

1/23/12
Never be alone
I am always in your soul
Just reach out to me

1/24/12
Days pass and we build
Without knowing our love grows
We get closer still

1/25/12
Yesterday a dream
Today nothing but heaven
Tomorrow all hope

1/26/12
Pensive I see you
You tap your foot to a beat
That only you hear

1/27/12
Reach out to me now
Hold me close I cannot sleep
I’m restful awake

1/28/12
Another morning
That was priceless in my book
You’re the one for me

1/29/12
Can’t remember when
The thought first came to my mind
Very glad it did

1/30/12
How quiet it can be
But I haven’t known silence
Remind me of it

1/31/12
Truth is always here
None of us can hide from it
Just let it happen

December Haikus

12/1/11
December is here
With freezing temperatures
And festive spirit

12/2/11
Your lips I dream of
Even when they’re within reach
Sweetest sweet I know

12/3/11
Being near you each day
I’m filled with inspiration
To be the best man

12/4/11
It’s early Sunday
We are sitting side by side
I love watching you

12/5/11
Today in traffic
Suddenly I was cut off
I calmly forgave

12/6/11
The feeling of dread
Autumn always seems to have
Winter’s cold wipes clean

12/7/11
No matter what’s done
I cannot elude a cold
Each year at this time

12/8/11
I am always struck
By the patience you posses
You’re ever loving

12/9/11
You feed my body
It is my soul you nourish
With your loving food

12/10/11
Popular adage:
“Charity begins at home”
You bring it to life

12/11/11
He shows up sometimes
To remind me of “could be”
My own flesh and blood

12/12/11
Holiday season
Wasn’t like the rest of the year
With you it’s year round

12/13/11
To give you credit
For my own success at work
Is imperative

12/14/11
It’s interesting
How tactile focused you are
It’s delicate love

12/15/11
Some forget kindness
When dealing with those close by
That is never you

12/16/11
Yes, you were bothered
By today’s activities
But I’m proud of you

12/17/11
Your hands gesturing
Hold my eyes captive, bewitched
Enamored in time

12/18/11
Time slips away quick
But I hope there’s enough nows
To last forever

12/19/11
Sweet kisses from you
Envelope my whole being
Like nothing else can

12/20/11
Your very actions
Write a poetry unmatched
By any writer

12/21/11
Embrace me today
I feel a torrent of doubt
Remind me of us

12/22/11
When you are amused
The light is sharper, brighter
For you are the source

12/23/11
No one has to ask
Generosity abounds
When you’re here with me

12/24/11
It’s what you’ve shown me
Family is important
Your love astounds me

12/25/11
The future’s open
But it all scares me sometimes
Don’t want to ruin it

12/26/11
I’d have never thought
Home to be anywhere else
But it’s always you

12/27/11
Many words arise
When I’m thinking about you
But all lead to love

12/28/11
Ask me what I want
There’s nothing more to say
But your lovely name

12/29/11
Now happens again
I can’t get enough of it
It’s featuring you

12/30/11
Days may pass quickly
Becoming a masterpiece
Our lives together

12/31/11
Year’s nearly over
Maybe just another day
Excuse to hold you
