Naked
The sun sheds its light, /
turned earthward by the moon, /
naked under the stars.

“Death becomes you”
Death becomes you
Death becomes you, my dear.
Let me hold your hand so our selfie is clear.
Get my bare bones, they show me the best.
All that flesh and muscle — begone all the rest.
I’ll wear my cap. You wear your smile.
Don’t worry about missing teeth. It’s been a while.

“Fall flowers”
Fall flowers
Fall flowers, ground change /
temperatures grow downward /
light blooms slowly.

Morning glory
Trumpeting today /
the morning glory funnels /
a bit of the sun.

Old orange
Old orange cat naps /
as a young October breeze /
whispers the future.

Photo finish Friday: “Windows”
Windows
Windows ripple /
as new colors are layered /
upon an old house.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Blush”
Blush
A blush of fall red /
highlights the Maple tree’s edge. /
Soon embracing all.

“Light”
Light
The light sees nothing: /
no reflections, no shadows, /
nothing gone, no you.

“Obit”
Obit
Acorns on the road,
misshapen to the moment,
obit underfoot.
