“Four swans”

Four swans

Four swans in the snow. /

Haloed white on lichened stone. /

Unmoved and unmoving.

“Lichen”

Lichen

Lichen on the fence, /

growing on the shaped timbers. /

Nature on man-made.

“Cat’s eye”

Cat’s eye

Cat’s eye with the fence, /

green as the summer lichen, /

focused as the dark wood.

“Lichen”

Lichen

Pathways, walkways, walls — /

Lichen covered here and there. /

Brick, stone, wood, and dirt — /

Decay is Time’s only care. /

Taking down the now — /

Leaving pieces that we share. /

Pathways, walkways, walls — /

Leading onward, lichen dare.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Facade”

Facade

Once a building, now /

reclaimed by leaves and lichen, /

glistened by the rain.
