Haiku to you Thursday: “Garden time”

Garden time

It’s the time of year /

when my garden yearns for rain /

and so do I.

“Echoes”

Echoes

Petals dangle: /

shriveled, dull, and empty; /

echoes of summer.

Even upended /

the sunflower’s tall beauty /

continues to bloom.

building a promise.

Your garden

I pluck the deadheads, /

the day lilies that have died /

and I remember.
