Haiku written January and February 2010 by Robert Stone

Another two months have rolled by and here are the recent haiku.
It's Jack Benny time.
Don't let the passing years dull
imagination.

-- Saturday, 2 January 2010


Not short and not long
we see what we learn to see
while our life just is.

- Sunday, 3 January 2010

Two joys of motion -
stillness that came before and
slowing expected.

- Tuesday, 5 January 2010

I like my own facts.
If your facts agree with mine,
I will like yours too.

- Wednesday, 6 January 2010

Write your poems today
for tomorrow there may be
nowhere to write them.

- Thursday, 7 January 2010

Now if you find out
what comes after the trying,
you will be all set.

- Sunday, 10 January 2010

Darkness is not dark
when animal eyes reflect
the neon jungle.

- Wednesday, 13 January 2010

The still untaken
are forced to new beginnings
when death takes others.

- Friday, 15 January 2010

Talk may be cheap but
often the consequences
are quite expensive.

- Friday, 22 January 2010

Unruffled feathers
only means one of two things -
calm or lifelessness.

- Monday, 1 February 2010

Apples and artists -
power, wisdom, or beauty -
choose the least fatal.

- Tuesday, 2 February 2010

Can Hope Rise In Self?
Will Each New Day End Life's Love?
Could More Praise Reach You?

- Friday, 12 February 2010

Don't want me to know?
Send that message written in
invisible ink.

- Sunday, 14 February 2010

Roses are red and
violets are blue but you
are the whole rainbow.

- Sunday, 14 February 2010
All of the haiku were written as comments on comments or on status notes or on photographs or on blog posts or in responses to emails. If you are really curious as to what caused me to write one of these, send me a note and I'll let you know. -Robert H. Stone. iam@bellsouth.net
