Death
Death is an entry, /
a metaphor unfolding, /
a flower empty.

“Silence”
Silence
Fall leaves on a bench,
a pile of my yesterdays
all in dead silence.

“Flash of inspiration”
Flash of inspiration
..
A flash of inspiration,
Showering the consternation
While trying to find usurpation
Because the damn thing won’t work.
..
Moments of contemplation,
Mental hiccups and gyrations
Have led to this perturbation:
Water and electricity to twerk.
..
The world in needed restoration
Could use so full lubrication:
Sweat, blood, toil – an aggregation
Exploding with a jerk.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Cravings”
Cravings
Halloween evening.
The dead amongst us this hour
crave “sweets” to devour.

“Fright”
Fright
Writer up all night /
succumbs to his story’s fright — /
no end in sight.

“Once”
Once
Once leaves flew above. /
Now, they gather here below, /
death waits on the wind.

Best
Be not tomorrow. /
Flowers give their best now. /
The future has no eyes.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Photo”
Photo
Your photo conjures /
memories built with pixels /
and desires unfilled.

Beth in September 2019. The world moves on, but the love remains.
“Old parchment”
Old parchment
Fall leaves touch sidewalk, /
plucked from a season’s fancy, /
curled as old parchment.

“Be bread”
Be bread
Bread was prepared. /
Pear bread. Be pre-pear-ed. /
Fruit baked and punned.
