6 haikus, senses

1

The last of the air!

Hold up your lungs; see it through.

It's all you've got now.

2

Smell the last of her

and imagine her body

in soft candle light.

3

But hear her after

all else leaves you; you're alone;

when love's the best thing.

4

Watch the west's last light,

look back into the coming

darkness: she is there.

5

Feel the old moss once

green, the new moss under your

feet. Life is mercy.

6

Or life is looking.

It's hard to say. To work and

eat, but mostly - love.
