Frank James Ryan Jr...fjr Work Poems

I was only fifteen,
I still remember her words
that tore through my Heart,
ostensibly for light years,
...

A Modern-Contemporary Haiku
w/ the syllabic requirement
of Traditional Zen style'Ku
...

As I walk alone in a world all my own-
I ponder the paths that have crossed my way;
A doctor, a plumber, a proctor, a drummer,
So many miles of dreams have passed my way.
