“Whisper”

Whisper

Falling leaves of fall /

whisper their dying refrain: /

winter is coming.

“Hanging”

Hanging

Hanging with the dead, /

may mean fingeratively,

or even your toes.

“Autumn descends”

Autumn descends

Old leaves and lost light, /

days of autumn descend on /

young cat and stone bench.

Embrace

Iron bars may not a /

Prison make, but the Earth may /

Embrace you forever.

“Bending”

Bending

Bending the daylight, /

Shaping the shadows, the bridge /

Spans more than water.

Photo finish Friday: “Seasonal waters”

Seasonal waters

It is the season. /

I drink from the mouth of death /

to quench my parched bones. /

Though I shall never be done /

for death now flows forth from me.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Caress”

Caress

Sky touches nothing /

yet still caresses the Earth’s /

all-embracing beauty.

“Fall songs”

Fall songs

Listen to the rain /

symphony of fall.

“Morning fog”

Morning fog

Sun wears morning fog, /

peeks from behind damp fall trees. /

Light and thoughts refract.

“Green eye”

Green eye

The green eye of fall /

spies from between the gate slats, /

crouches with the leaves.
