“On the wall”

On the wall

The body is gone. /

Prison is more than a place. /

Hope hangs on the wall.

“See”

See

See the fall evening /

reflected in the mirror, /

fading with the sun.

“Seeds”

Seeds

Autumn seeds descend. /

Winter’s cold underworld. /

Spring’s ghost whispers hope.

“Silence”

Silence

Fall leaves on a bench,

a pile of my yesterdays

all in dead silence.

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”

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.
