August on the air.

“Hints”

Hints

Fall is dropping hints. /

Yellow, brown, red, orange notes. /

Winter whispers: “Yes.”

“Plays”

Plays

Time plays with shadows,

with colors, with empty nights,

with hands forgetting.

A true patriot /

sees not only the flag, but /

the night approaching.

“morning”

morning

Behind the truck tire,

breakfast a full memory,

the cat cleans himself.

Rain speeds earthward, /

slams summer leaves and petals. /

Thunder drives the night.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Bee”

Bee

Bee darts among blooms, /

gathering summer’s pollen, /

whispering of fall.

Cheerful

While others wither, /

some flowers remain cheerful /

in the days still here.

mountain in the sky.

Photo finish Friday: “Blooms”

Blooms

The cone flowers bloom. /

Beauty brief, yet eternal. /

The cone flowers die.
