Haiku to you Thursday: “Moon”

Moon

Barren branches clutch /

at passing quarter moon; grip /

empty into dawn.

Haiku and photo: “Forget not”

Forget not

Let us not forget /

Those who define heroism /

By the rule of hate.

Haiku and photo: “Fire far away”

Fire far away

Sky fire far away /

beckons a tired winter day. /

Eternity rests.

Time

Now is elastic, /

Memory stretches then, /

Next shrinks away.

Haiku and photo: “Goodbye”

Goodbye

Footsteps here and gone. /

What you hold you someday lose. /

What you embrace stays.

Photo finish Friday: “Remembrance”

Remembrance

When you reach the end /

there’s a sign. Not an exit, /

but in remembrance.

Haiku and photo: “Gallon grief”

Gallon grief

Heartache, ice cream takes /

one gallon or two: cone, scoops, /

pain moves — heart to head.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Dreams”

Dreams

Snow fell as I slept: /

a thousand, million, billion /

fleeting winter dreams.

Haiku and photo: “Sitting”

Sitting

Snow sits in your chair, /

surveys your sleeping garden, /

Sad it will miss spring.

Haiku and photo: “Branching”

Branching

The full moon beyond /

Silhouette of winter trees /

Near to quiet Earth.
