Haiku to you Thursday: “Clouds”

Heat builds through the night,

in weather and in desire:

clouds of rain and sweat.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Specters”

Parking lot specters,

swabs of color under lights,

form toward their day’s work.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Autumn’s fingers”

Back into darkness

again falls early morning.

Autumn’s fingers grip.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Places”

Fear lives in those places /

where hope has died and love /

withers in the sun.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Tastes”

Without your whisper /

my ear hears only stale words. /

Summer tastes empty.

[Editor’s note: This is a variation on the Haiku posted last Thursday, entitled “Silence.”]

Haiku to you Thursday: “Silence”

Silence tastes empty. /

Without your whisper, my ear /

hears only stale words.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Corn”

Ear of golden corn; /

kernels snap free in my mouth. /

July between my teeth.

Haiku to you Thursday: “First day”

Full moon fading West. /

Orange-red rays stroke the East. /

Summer’s first day.

Haiku to you Thursday: “A thousand eyes”

A thousand eyes long /

this river of ice and time /

we adventure in love.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Hiding”

Bowl of temptation

Bowl of temptation

Brilliant red cherries – /

The tree of spring temptation – /

Disguising the pits.
