Love fruit

Love fruit on the roof. /

Once considered poisonous /

Now poised over us.

Deep in the forest, /

Haiku and photo: “Taste”

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.

Haiku and photo: “The street”

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.

Poem and photo: “Death becomes you”

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.
