Busy
Busy is the bee /
though autumn’s cool grasp clasps /
Dusk closer to dawn.

Love fruit on the roof. /
Once considered poisonous /
Now poised over us.

Monday morning writing joke: “Writer named Maxwell”
There once was writer named Maxwell, /
Who wrote only about things factual. /
Imagination, he said, /
Was overrated and dead. /
Then he was eaten by a Pterodactyl.
Sunday silliness: “Hunter’s stew”

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

Haiku and photo: “Taste”

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

Photo finish Friday: “Fairy house”

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.

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.
