Harass
A feathered sun sits /
high in the catalpa tree. /
Feathered moons harass.

Corg
I am the Corgi. /
Resistance is but futile. /
Scratch me now, human.

Linger
Shadows in autumn, /
walking dogs in the evening. /
Memories linger.

Light
The light sees nothing: /
no reflections, no shadows, /
nothing gone, no you.

Save
A single flower /
cannot save you, except – /
in contemplation.

Quilt
Many leaves fall down /
weaving on the Earth a quilt /
as if preparing.

Dreams
Found in the small park, /
a finger puppet zebra, /
dirty but dream filled.

I am not big on manufactured holidays, but in honor of Daughter’s Day, I repost this haiku, which features my daughter, Lauren in 2011.
Three Rivers Market
Ode to an eggplant,
Locally grown. Daughter holding,
about to take home.

Fall
Fall paints the maple, /
a blush of red to its summer green. /
Then the bright leaves fall.
