Photo finish Friday: “Whispers”

Whispers

Beneath my tired cane, /

the floor whispers its beauty /

to the soles passing.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Sometimes”

Sometimes

I hold you now /

in memories high as clouds — /

sometimes just as thin.

“Light drips”

Light drips

The sun flows beyond

the horizon and the day’s

light drips into dreams.

Sky

Fire in the winter: /

Sky ablaze behind storm clouds. /

Earth in shadow waits.

“Unlatched”

Unlatched

Unlatched gate swings free. /

Raindrops dangle from the bar. /

Winter wind whistles.

“Lines and light”

Lines and light

New lines and old light, /

waiting room blinds shadowing /

a framed winter’s morn.

Promises

New Year’s promises /

like a rusted pipe.

Morning light

Morning light moves night, /

Shining from kitchen and sky. /

Horizons await.

“Held”

Held

Held frozen in ice, /

an old oak leaf embalmed by /

water and time.

“Weather”

Weather

Sky climbs the ladder, /

reaches the morning rooftop, /

and sings quiet blues.
