Spring / fall

Spring flower, fall rain. /

Iris white, droplets bubble. /

Rebloom and return.

Silly Saturday: “Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse”

Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse

It’s the Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse.

Death in their DNA got the slip.

Now they roam the countryside.

Wild, winged, and bent on genocide.

Beware! should you cross their path.

They travel in herds and will attack.

Munch and crunch and chew to the ground

all flora and fauna and toes that can be found.

There is but one way to tame these bunnies.

That is to roll them over and rub their tummies.

But you might not be able to get that near,

at least not until you’ve have a couple of beers.

These bunnies are fierce in their apocalyptic way,

but belly rubs and carrots could save the day.

Saturday silliness: “Corg”

Corg

I am the Corgi. /

Resistance is but futile. /

Scratch me now, human.

Flower is the sun, /

Pollen gravity.

Haiku and photo: “Bending”

Bending

Bending the daylight, /

Shaping the shadows, the bridge /

Spans more than water.

In the lesser light, /

Iris blooming in autumn. /

Slanting toward the sun.

Autumn takes a seat. /

Wild pumpkin vine entwining. /

Time, air, rain, and you.
