Wrinkles
Blue haired old lady /
Streaks of gray and white abound /
Wrinkles fold Earth’s face.

Haiku to you Thursday: “In one leaf”
In one leaf
In one leaf is all
the fall, and in one moment
is all of a life.

Seeds
Autumn seeds descend. /
Winter’s cold underworld. /
Spring’s ghost whispers hope.

Santa giving out Halloween candy
Santa giving out Halloween candy
Happy Ho-Ho-Holloween!
From October 31, 2013.
A pirate and Mario green
On Santa’s front porch can be seen.
Oh, the memories from nine years past
May they give a smile that will last.
As the years raise, sails on the mast,
Sailing us to other shores, too fast.
To hold a moment in our hands
Is hard because of where we stand.
We want to be still, a rock on land,
But that is often not how it’s planned.
So, remember now all things seen,
Smelled, felt, and comforting.
Knowing most will be only a sheen,
A glittering moment from which we have been.

Only
Halloween heart eek. /
She left me; I could not speak./
Only ghostly shriek.

Haiku and photo: “The days”
The days
Bars stand vertical /
Days scratched straight, then strike at four /
The wall bares my time.

Iron bars may not a /
Prison make, but the Earth may /
Embrace you forever.
