Once

Once upon a tree, /

this fallen maple leaf dreamed /

a warm summer’s dream.

“Fading”

Fading

A shield to the rain,

oak leaf upturned on the street,

fading on asphalt.

“Haiku in the fall”

Haiku in the fall

Haiku in the fall. /

Stripped of ornamentation, /

words live sparingly.

Path

Cat among the leaves; /

fall colors upon the ground. /

Path to winter near.

Lovers kiss goodbye. /

Red glistens the horizon. /

Night and hearts weave dreams.

Seeds before the moon, /

autumn leaves dangling like dreams, /

perishing tonight.

Curls

Alone on a plant, /

struggling through the shortened days, /

a young pepper curls.

Limits

Life at the limits /

has turned loose its freak show. /

Flowers squirt poison.

“Waiting”

Waiting

Waiting your guidance, /

possessions are opinions /

lacking direction.
