Hold back tomorrow.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Holiday”

Holiday

A young lad dreams of /

riding his paper airplane /

like Santa’s red sleigh.

Another day flowers /

Cling

Fall rain clings to stems /

and leaves clinging to summer’s /

warm, fading promise.

Communion

Cooper’s Hawk waits /

in empty communion /

with scattered birds.

“Embrace”

Embrace

Branches bare, sunlight crisp,

clouds with highlighted edges.

Fall’s naked embrace.

“Rhythms”

Rhythms

Steady, deep rhythms /

calm the mind, quiet the heart,

breathe to right the leaf.

Fall leaves

Fall leaves

Blueberry’s fall leaves /

reflect red with the season, /

soon brown with winter.
