The Butterfly War by Dennis Allen Lange

—

A butterfly that would a bomber be,
…To rise and take its load, as if a shell,
To drop upon the world the fragrancy
…Of petals, would spread peace and wish it well.

Pasta Games – haiku by Dennis Allen Lange

—

Elbow?  No,
Even pasta plays
The shell game.

—
Hide and seek.
And the green one said,
“Can’t find me.”

—
In the pool,
When I say ‘Maca”,
Say “roni”.

* The haiku I write are lines of 3-5-3 syllables instead of 5-7-5.
