Photo finish Friday: “Summer”

Summer

Summer has its song. /

Chords of languid heat, love lost, /

and words bound in time.

“Hope”

Hope

Bird house hangs empty, /

its body decayed, waiting /

for song’s first echo.

“Shadow Song”

Shadow Song

Breeze and leaves chorale /

Through sun-silhouetted limbs. /

Shadow song of fall.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Song”

Song

Listen to fall sing.

A dirge for descending leaves

or a hymn for snow?

Bee hums to the beat /

Of sunflower serenade. /

Summer pollen song.

Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “Muses”

Toast to the muses /
High and low, who grace the Earth /
With bread, wine, and song.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Hum”

Hum and chirp: dawn song. /

Bang and warble: midday refrain. /

Sigh and buzz: dusk coda.

Monday morning writing joke: “Musical interlude”

Patient: “Doc, I can’t stop singing ‘The Green, Green Grass of Home.'”

Doctor: “That sounds like Tom Jones Syndrome.”

Patient: “Is it common?”

Doctor: “Well, ‘It’s Not Unusual.'”
