five haiku

bird song rides upon
the spring morning as wishes
ride a smiling face

some say rains are tears
of god, not so, I cry the
rain, those are my tears

the babbling brook
comforts me, I am holding
the hand of a friend

water skimmers walk
the pond surface, does that make
them to be Jesus?

light of a full moon
bright enough to notice but
not to understand
