Haiku, Cowgirl, & Micro Poetry

I.

Aphonia afflicted, I overcome –                                                              

Voice resonates finely

Articulated truth –

Silent, incendiary expression –

My written word.

II.

Smiling eyes conceal

Moiety of battle wounds.

Can you see the scars?

III.

Give yourself to me -

The good, bad, and the ugly –

Want the whole package.

IV.

Frenetic struggle

My canvas, blood soaked Pollock

Give way, Chagall dreams.

Cowgirl Poetry ~ Haiku

Artist: Lynda Lanker

V.

Weathered and leathered –

Ranchers, cowgirls born with grit

Saddle up again.

VI.

Bruised and bones broken

Bloodied noses – bring it on –

Bull riders don’t quit.
