“Flash of inspiration”

Flash of inspiration

..

A flash of inspiration,

Showering the consternation

While trying to find usurpation

Because the damn thing won’t work.

..

Moments of contemplation,

Mental hiccups and gyrations

Have led to this perturbation:

Water and electricity to twerk.

..

The world in needed restoration

Could use so full lubrication:

Sweat, blood, toil – an aggregation

Exploding with a jerk.

.

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.

“Brushy Mountain”

Brushy Mountain

Watchers and watched speak /

Memories wet and cold as /

A Saturday rain.

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.

Bread was prepared. /

Pear bread. Be pre-pear-ed. /

Fruit baked and punned.
