River

 -------River-------

Stray, 

youngblood,

from the beaten path

And let your way 

be fluid.

Meander stones,

hop banks 

and borders,

Flood 

the famished valleys.

Take back what is yours,

your mind

your body

And ride it

to the Sea.

Community haiku

 -------Community haiku-------

Do not 

be afraid

Of this world 

falling 

apart.

Listen 

to the birds

To springtime

Telling us, 

"Believe

In yourselves."

What If

 -------What If-------

A child's eyes 

see clearly

The Truth 

before they're hidden

By fear 

it might 

Incite 

a question

And break 

the world wide open.

Joyful Resistance

 -------Joyful Resistance-------

The war machine 

has failed 

to take

The People 

from the Land

Time and again

It is time 

again

For the fist

to raise

in joy.

A Gentle Nudge haiku

 -------A Gentle Nudge haiku-------

Springtime 

birds return

In harmony 

with Imbolc

Singing us

awake.

Unity haiku

 -------Unity haiku-------

The big We

Progress

together.

Free the Land.

Martyr

 -------Martyr-------

Money men 

might take the trees

But roots 

will hold the light

Years and years 

of sunshine gathered

Forever 

in the earth.
