"No Mere Girl" (A haiku for Ashley)

With determined eyes
And a heart that is open
Woman steps forward or

For My Mom

Promise made and kept
Amid the falling blossoms
Of a mother's love

For My Sister

When she speaks, a breeze
Hair flows, rustling maple
Gaze, a bright fall sky

For Donna

The teacher's wisdom
Still shines in what she taught me
With her words and deeds

The Weaver

To stretch she pauses
From creating her artwork
Thus becoming art

John William Waterhouse - " "I'm Half Sick Of Shadows" Said The Lady Of Shalott"

Pengineer

A pen once broken
Is replaced by a new one
From the pen maker

The Patient Inventor

An engineer's mind
A workshop of wires and gears
Imagines new worlds
