Haiku and photo: “Molten”

Molten

Red, molten morning /

Umber clouds seethe in the sky /

Umbrage at the sun.

Haiku and photo: “Lonely”

Lonely

Lonely silhouette /

Life bare: fall tree, fallen leaves. /

Setting sun holds you.

Haiku and photo: “Wind”

Wind

Like birds on a wire, /

Waiting for inspiration, /

My thoughts ache for wind.

Haiku and photo: “Morning fire”

Morning fire

Autumn’s morning fire, /

caught in the embers of leaves: /

smoldering, dying.

Santa giving out Halloween candy

Santa giving out Halloween candy

Happy Ho-Ho-Holloween!

From October 31, 2013.

A pirate and Mario green

On Santa’s front porch can be seen.

Oh, the memories from nine years past

May they give a smile that will last.

As the years raise, sails on the mast,

Sailing us to other shores, too fast.

To hold a moment in our hands

Is hard because of where we stand.

We want to be still, a rock on land,

But that is often not how it’s planned.

So, remember now all things seen,

Smelled, felt, and comforting.

Knowing most will be only a sheen,

A glittering moment from which we have been.

Monday morning writing joke: “Noted”

There once was an actor of note,

Who thought he was so good he could float.

Upon the stage he did try

To levitate way up high,

And soon he was smaller than a mote.

Monday morning writing joke: “Writer named Maxwell”

There once was writer named Maxwell, /

Who wrote only about things factual. /

Imagination, he said, /

Was overrated and dead. /

Then he was eaten by a Pterodactyl.

Haiku and photo: “O’ chair”

O’ chair

Autumn takes a seat. /

Wild pumpkin vine entwining. /

Time, air, rain, and you.

Haiku and photo: “Windows”

Windows

Wind eye to window. /

Open, closed, and shaded. /

Port to portal peek.
