“Life”

Life

Mushrooms grow on death, /

turning a lifeless tree trunk /

Into life support.

“Sentinels”

Sentinels

On the quiet stairs, /

holding hope for next Christmas, /

sentinels wait….

“Tracks”

Tracks

All travel alone /

Each in a boxcar of flesh /

Whistling goodbye.

“Unbidden”

Unbidden

Unbidden, Spring blooms, /

poking through neglect and pain, /

yellow and graceful.

“Morning”

Morning

Morning light divides. /

Shadows wander like false ghosts: /

here, dark, and then gone.

Photo finish Friday: “Gone”

Gone

The road, the clouds, the wires /

point to horizons gone /

from your moments here.

“In the wind”

In the wind

Wind muscles the clouds. /

Stripped limbs reflect off windows, /

dancing in the past.

On Valentine’s Day, /

Haiku and photo: “Possum love”

Possum love

The night was fulsome. /

The opossum was hungry. /

Bird seed made a feast.

Senryu and photo: “Machine”

Machine

Machine thrums onward, /

whispers its contrived results, /

even when you’re gone.
