“Old love”

Old love

Love is an old house /

Projects always underway. /

Not for everyone.

Photo finish Friday: “Lambent”

Lambent

Evening limb lightning, /
jagged shadow descends trunk, /
lambent on asphalt.

“Some days”

Some days

Some days, parts are gone. /

Some days, your ride is missing. /

Some days just subtract.

“Key”

Key

Ideas clattered /

Words against the emptiness /

Beating back decline.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Ends”

Ends

In the evening, leaves /

bud from the ends of limbs. /

The crescent moon wanes.

“Life”

Life

Mushrooms grow on death, /

turning a lifeless tree trunk /

Into life support.

“Walking”

Walking

Walking empty /

by the early flowers /

as though blooms never end.

“Ice moment”

Ice moment

Winter is not done./

Reaching out, a cold great aunt’s touch /

With soft glove missing.

“Box carred in”

Box carred in

Freight train before me. /

White car blocking my behind. /

Road to nowhere now.

“Light”

Light

Before the windows /

Shines the ceiling lamp, hanging /

Empty and yet full.
