Death and the flower

Work done, beauty made. /

To rest in summer’s wonder. /

Death and the flower.

Sunlight moment

Head heavy with seeds. /

Petals shimmering with light. /

Namesake life giver.

Out there

Out there is in here. /

Rain, turmoil, thunder, lightning /

Pain, grief, love, release.

The sky

The clouds above me /

Form around a dust whisper /

Cry into the night.

Our corner

No place is perfect /

No time. No person. No thing. /

Yes, we still strive. Yes.

Home

The dead and living /

Occupy the same domain. /

Sharing rain and sun.

The Solstice has passed. /

Let us now speak of Summer. /

But, first, let us nap.

Haiku and photo: “Walk on the wild side”

Walk on the wild side

Walking sometimes wins /

Even when feathers offer flight. /

A Daedalus day.
