“Silence”

Silence

The wind rattles limbs /

sweeps the leaves after the rain. /

Ravens stay silent.

“The seat”

The seat

I bought the book /

with the cow on the couch /

and I wonder /

is this a Freudian slip, /

a Jungian shadow, or /

my mother’s sofa.

Joys

Trees stand naked. /

Flowers succumb to the cold. /

The sun holds its joys.

Haiku to you Thursday: “One day”

One day

One day there will be no cat.

One day there will be no fence.

What then of the scratching?
