“Spring shadow”

Spring shadow

Frost etches brown leaves /

Clinging to the young oak tree. /

Ice shadows blue spring.

“Whisper”

Whisper

Bend now bare limbs /

burdened by the clouds passing, /

whispering of spring.

“Lost”

Lost

What spring leaves embraced, /

bare branches cannot caress. /

Dappled sunlight lost.

“Work”

Work

Leaves start falling, but /

flowers continue blooming, /

and bees build for spring.

“Folded beauty”

Folded beauty

The folded beauty /

Of fading flower petals /

Ends not Spring’s bloom.

“Hope for the creek”

Hope for the creek

The Hail Mary here /

Is neither pass nor prayer /

But hope for the creek.

“Purple Iris”

Purple Iris

Petals up and down /

Shining in the sun’s pleasure /

Bright beard on curled tongue.

“The park”

The Park

Spring strolls through the park. /

Shaking green from her sleeves and /

Color from her eyes.

Haiku to you Thursday, “Each”

Each

Each Spring ends too soon. /

Each Iris blooms but briefly. /

Each bloom, timeless joy.
