Pumpkins

Orange rounds herald fall. /

Volunteers grown in front yard. /

Evening sun accents.

“Work”

Work

Leaves start falling, but /

flowers continue blooming, /

and bees build for spring.

“Welcome”

Welcome

Welcome fall, when rains /

turn summer trees upside down. /

Limbs take root in sky.

“Colors”

Colors

Varied browns of fall /

replace your vibrant summer. /

I remember hues.

“Half”

Half

Reach for the moon, /

shedding its life of lightness. /

Half here and half gone.

Photo finish Friday: “Summer’s passing”

Summer’s passing

Bare heads hang empty, /

stalks and leaves brown and crispy. /

Spiders claim briskly.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Song”

Song

Listen to fall sing.

A dirge for descending leaves

or a hymn for snow?

“Tears”

Tears

The gray cloud monster /

clutches at the evening sun, /

squeezing free the tears.

This day

Part of the morning. /

Thoughts of another’s life. /

His moment or mine?

Evening shades of blue. /

I look up and think of you. /

Nimbus cloud in view.
