Valentine Haikus, love in 17 syllables

Tom Strini’s Seven New Haikus for Valentines Day, 2012

You dress and undress
And delight in my watching
In love’s day to day

If I thought you’d laugh
If I fell down the staircase
I would take the dive

When brown eyes do weep
Blues eyes weep. When brown eyes do
Smile, blue eyes smile too

Days months years decades
Always near ever dearer
Ever wanting more

You fold fitted sheets
So neatly. Small things you do
Make love rush through me

Old familiar love
Ardent as the younger sort
I’m pleased to report

You’re mine. If not, I’d
Hatch screwball comic plots to
Be your Valentine

And here’s a link to a Valentine’s column past.
