“Morning”

Morning

Morning light divides. /

Shadows wander like false ghosts: /

here, dark, and then gone.

Photo finish Friday: “Gone”

Gone

The road, the clouds, the wires /

point to horizons gone /

from your moments here.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Grabbing”

Grabbing

Bare limbs grab at Moon, /

fingers clutching through night fog. /

My ghost escapes hope.

“In the wind”

In the wind

Wind muscles the clouds. /

Stripped limbs reflect off windows, /

dancing in the past.

Valentine’s Day

On Valentine’s Day, /

the sun shines on Beth’s table /

Haiku and photo: “Possum love”

Possum love

The night was fulsome. /

The opossum was hungry. /

Bird seed made a feast.

Sunday silliness: “Wipe”

“Crap, you’re old,” said the person who gave a shit.

I, though, felt no reason to dump on the birthday boy. I wiped my hands of the situation.

Senryu and photo: “Machine”

Machine

Machine thrums onward, /

whispers its contrived results, /

even when you’re gone.

Photo finish Friday: “East”

East

Over in the East, /

burning below night’s pains, /

rises dawn’s searching flame.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Up”

Up

Up, beyond dark clouds, /

flows a sky of supple blue, /

and glimpses of you.
