Three Miscellaneous Haiku by Dennis Lange

It’s Home

Don’t you gno?
There’s gnome place in Nome
Dorothy.

——————–

Who Sews?  A Sewer

A close fit
On street’s brick-striped shirt -
A button.

——————–

Per See Ving

One can see
God’s word and still not
Truly see.

Three Miscellaneous Haiku by Dennis Lange

 

Hear Her Here

She complained:
Words fall on deaf ears.
He: Heard that!

——————–

 

Passing The Torch

I’m setting.
I’ve kept the day safe.
It’s your turn.

——————–

 

The Watcher

The sadness,
Man’s woe on the earth -
I can’t watch.

——————–

Call of the Mild

Serene, rest -
Nature and hammock,
Inviting.

——————–

 

Identity Theft

Tell a clown:
Stop clowning around!
Becomes what?

——————–

 

Find It

There’s a way.
Oft when the world’s dark,
Bright for you.

Potted Plants

What grows here?
Two plants that we call
Cat’s whiskers.

——————–

Owl Let You Know

I’m asking:
Who is the wise guy?
Who, who, who?

——————–

The Ocean, The World

Oh, just look!
So much sea to see!
The joy!

A White Lie

To say that
I came by limo
Stretches truth.

——————–

Pantheists

They are those
Who worship nature -
Tree huggers.

——————–

Kitty Gossip

Oh, that porch!
It’s not a place for
Long-tailed cats.

Three Bird Haiku by Dennis Lange

Double Date

Scoot over.
When does movie start?
Popcorn? Coke?

——————-

 

No Bronze

The medals
In rooftop perching
Gold, silver.

Incoming

Put flaps down;
Cut all the engines -
Smooth landing.

A Bow of Boats

Just waiting
To take to the sea –
A rainbow.

——————–

Why Immigrants Come To America

I get it.
Torch statue holds is
Free ice cream.

Demure At Dawn

Grand ladies
Dressing modestly,
Wearing veils.

Three Miscellaneous Haiku by Dennis Lange

This One Let It Slip

A lip curl;
Eyes, a certain look –
Sneer, disdain.

——————–

The Invitation

Hungry? Cold?:
Thirsty? Foot weary?
Just lonely?

——————–

Flanders Field?

Poppies grow,
Spread, as does in war
The blood flow.

The Size of Delaware

Amend sign.
A million acres
Needs army.

——————–

 

New Name; Same Bad Place

Bates Motel?
It has a warning:
Blood on sign.

Glitches

No warning.
Until this moment,
Life was smooth.
