Haiku to you Thursday: “Alms”

Lawnmowers silenced /

Crippled grass cries out for rain: /

alms for the parched Earth.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Blanket”

Sun pushes aside /

clouds that blanket the valley: /

morning greets the Earth.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Wings”

Fall dips into day. /

Wings open unto the sky: /

migration returns.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Truth”

The wind and the truth, /

Whirl on fall’s brittle edge: /

Leaves and love are brown.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Endless”

The rooms are endless, /

Like stars in the universe /

In my summer’s dream.

[Editor’s note: This takes the same idea as last week’s haiku and takes it in a slightly different way.]

Haiku to you Thursday: “Infinite”

Infinite the rooms, /

yet empty the mansion – /

Save one with flowers.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Darkness”

Darkness is my end. /

There is no empty god –/

Only the moist fear.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Clamber”

Dark forest, empty trees /

Fog clamber over brown hills. /

Fall evening lives on.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Churlish”

Lumpy, churlish clouds /

banging against the horizon, /

bloodied by the sun.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Bruised”

Bruised, you come to me: /

flowers darkened into night, /

love purpled by regret.
