Haiku #3: "To Freeze or Not"

To Freeze or Not

by Mitchell R. Aiken

Warm days, cool nights here.

The weather can't seem to choose.

Freeze them, or sizzle.

.

The ying and yang of

It all makes me long for a

Summer of pure heat.

.

I'll get my wish soon.

Hundred degree days will come,

Melting my yingyang.

Traveler's Haiku #2

"Traveler's Haiku #2"
by Mitchell R. Aiken

On the road again,
watching each mile pass beneath
me like a cold snake.
Striking the town lights
after dusk, snapping at scenes,
slurping gas and oil,
as the wind blows east
into the desert sands and
a Red Rock Canyon.
