Selfless Paridise Pity Party: Romantic ImproVerse Haiku Lament

I won’t ruin their /
paradise by telling her/
about my heart ache.

Thank You, Whitney! Revolutionary ImproVerse Haiku

Why is it often/
that folks who struggle the most/
have the biggest hearts?
[A young woman suffering from chronic illness heard about my daughter’s plight (and other women in treatment with my daughter) and prepared holiday packages for them … prompting this poem.]

Why She Tans: Revolutionary ConTEXTing Haiku

We ask so often:/
“What would you like?” we forget/
to fill our own needs.

OR

She so often asks:/
“What would you like?”, she forgets/
to fill her own needs.

Like Mother, Like Daughter: Revolutionary ConTEXTing Haiku

She cares intensely./
Her worry overwhelms. Why?/
Then I meet her mom.

OR
She selflessly cares./
Her worry overwhelms. Why?/

I’m Glad You Moved On: Romantic Email Poetry

I’m glad you moved on,
and clicked the “meet me” button.
That means you’re available,
even if you’re just up the hill.

I won’t use forbidden words
You’ve so often heard
to describe you.
They must chide you.

Instead, I’ll offer my selfless heart.
With that kindness, that’s how I’ll start:
Give of my giving self
to pull you off your shelf.

A spontaneous creative man with a young soul,
coupled with a similar woman: Come on, let’s go!
