In the lesser light, /

Iris blooming in autumn. /

Slanting toward the sun.

Iris smiles

Small field of Spring blooms /

Purple-yellow Iris smiles /

Catch afternoon dreams.

Haiku and photo: “Purple Iris”

Purple Iris

Petals up and down /

Shining in the sun’s pleasure /

Bright beard on curled tongue.

Water flower

White Iris pedals /

Folded by the falling Spring /

Rise to catch the rain.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Love is…”

Purple Iris after a rain.

 

Love is a flower. /

Often too short a time /

but always a wonder.
