“Morning fog”

Morning fog

Sun wears morning fog, /

peeks from behind damp fall trees. /

Light and thoughts refract.

“Green eye”

Green eye

The green eye of fall /

spies from between the gate slats, /

crouches with the leaves.

“Moments”

Moments

Moments are time’s stones. /

Some build bridges to the heart. /

Some become fall leaves.

“Hidden”

Hidden

Hidden in each leaf /

is the chance to do good — /

if you can find it.

“Half-moon”

Half-moon

Autumn half-moon, high, /

waves to the world, good-bye; /

night soon fills the sky.

Your name, the creek speaks, /

Haiku to you Thursday: “Wish”

Wish

Iris in autumn, /

blooming purple as if May /
