Eiffel Eyeful – haiku by Dennis Allen Lange

—

The needle
In Paris haystack –
Easy find.

Sonnet 82 – Meryl Streep by Dennis Lange

Chameleons can paint themselves away
Into the colored canvas where they lie
Until they are a needle in the hay,
Until they are an outline to the eye.

An actress who’s the greatest in her class,
Who pours herself into the part she plays
And fills it like pure water fills a glass
So disappears, to ev’rybody’s praise.

The one becomes another not a twin.
The first has died to give the second life
By slipping into a disparate skin
With tailor’s ease or with a surgeon’s knife.

The face of Meryl Streep can still be seen
In parts she plays, but she’s not on the screen.

Three Miscellaneous Haiku by Dennis Lange

Baby Boomers

Proud parents’
View of nursery
And newborns.

——————– 

 

Where’s Mine?

Search is like
Looking for needle
In bike rack.

——————– 

 

God’s Glory And Man’s

Ah, the nights!
There are the stars and
Manmade lights.
