“Love”

Love

Love is the big fish /

that always gets away, but /

leaves tall tales to tell.

“Waits”

Waits

Praying mantis waits, /

perched on dying sunflower. /

Death waits on death’s face.

“Dancing”

Dancing

Light and wind and clouds /

dance across roofs while tired eyes /

watch evening step in.

Hints

Fall is dropping hints. /

Yellow, brown, red, orange notes. /

Winter whispers: “Yes.”

“Plays”

Plays

Time plays with shadows,

with colors, with empty nights,

with hands forgetting.

“Light”

Light

A true patriot /

sees not only the flag, but /

the night approaching.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Song”

Song

Listen to fall sing.

A dirge for descending leaves

or a hymn for snow?

“Anon”

Anon

Susurrating trees /

evening approaches anon /

building and clouds sigh.

“Tears”

Tears

The gray cloud monster /

clutches at the evening sun, /

squeezing free the tears.
