Hunters stew
Deep in the forest, /
made with choice ingredients, /
Autumn Hunters Stew.

Taste
Taste grows from the soil /
Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, then fruits. /
Seeds become flavors.

Fairy house
Shells of the ocean /
formed as a house for fairies /
Young hands mold magic.

The street
Red lights strip the dark /
Sirens usurp the silence /
Need consumes the street.

Socked feet
Both full and thankful, /
Kindness has many flavors /
Carried on socked feet.

Death becomes you
Death becomes you, my dear.
Let me hold your hand so our selfie is clear.
Get my bare bones, they show me the best.
All that flesh and muscle — begone all the rest.
I’ll wear my cap. You wear your smile.
Don’t worry about missing teeth. It’s been a while.

Harvest
Sweet yellow orbs fill /
Harvest of early autumn /
Fiery red sticks, too.

Desiccation Hope
Desiccated leaves /
Fall murmurs through the breezes /
Hope, too, rides the air.

Spring / fall
Spring flower, fall rain. /
Iris white, droplets bubble. /
Rebloom and return.
