Lambent
Evening limb lightning, /
jagged shadow descends trunk, /
lambent on asphalt.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Ends”
Ends
In the evening, leaves /
bud from the ends of limbs. /
The crescent moon wanes.

“Life”
Life
Mushrooms grow on death, /
turning a lifeless tree trunk /
Into life support.

“Walking”
Walking
Walking empty /
by the early flowers /
as though blooms never end.

“Ice moment”
Ice moment
Winter is not done./
Reaching out, a cold great aunt’s touch /
With soft glove missing.

“Light”
Light
Before the windows /
Shines the ceiling lamp, hanging /
Empty and yet full.

“Sentinels”
Sentinels
On the quiet stairs, /
holding hope for next Christmas, /
sentinels wait….

“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.

“Waves”
Waves
Waves in the water, /
waves in the sky, waves hello, /
and waves goodbye.

“Unbidden”
Unbidden
Unbidden, Spring blooms, /
poking through neglect and pain, /
yellow and graceful.
