Morning fire
Autumn’s morning fire, /
caught in the embers of leaves: /
smoldering, dying.

Morning paint
Day’s palette starts slow, /
Brushes into the moments /
Night has left undone.

Shadow Song
Breeze and leaves chorale /
Through sun-silhouetted limbs. /
Shadow song of fall.

Haiku in the fall
Haiku in the fall. /
Stripped of ornamentation, /
words live sparingly.

Traveler
Autumn in shadows, /
Evening Sun slung low, early. /
Traveler departing.

Time
Man made the time piece. /
Time’s moments make memories. /
The clock should not rule.

Dance
Breeze sets the tempo. /
Autumn sun lights the brick stage. /
Flag and shadow dance.

Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude
Spent the evening in camarad.
Eating birdseed,
Fists full of greed,
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude,
In raccoon fur they trod.
Into the night
They ate with delight,
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Three raccoons in a pod.
Three peas after food,
Including suet crude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.
Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude
Were too inland to find scrod.
Eventually they left.
When a boom with some heft
Shooed on Winkin, Blinkin, and Claude.

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