“Quilt”

Quilt

Many leaves fall down /

weaving on the Earth a quilt /

as if preparing.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Dreams”

Dreams

Found in the small park, /

a finger puppet zebra, /

dirty but dream filled.

“Moment”

Moment

Brown Spanish needles /

spear a falling dogwood leaf /

and hold a fall moment.

“Three Rivers Market”

I am not big on manufactured holidays, but in honor of Daughter’s Day, I repost this haiku, which features my daughter, Lauren in 2011.

Three Rivers Market

Ode to an eggplant,

Locally grown. Daughter holding,

about to take home.

“Fall”

Fall

Fall paints the maple, /

a blush of red to its summer green. /

Then the bright leaves fall.

“Loudly”

Loudly

The birds belch loudly /

verses on the morning sun. /

The earthworms rejoice.

At the wishing well, /

most people make wishes. /

Others make faces.

From the dark, eyes peer /

into the rising, warm day. /

Questions fall like leaves.

Hose

Garden hose and cat /

not pleased with where it’s at. /

Curled and claws for a spat.
