“Fading”

Fading

A shield to the rain,

oak leaf upturned on the street,

fading on asphalt.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Scattered”

Scattered

Scattered on the street, /

reflected in the car door, /

curled oak leaves and light.

Thief

Beside the street, /

in a flowering Eden /

a snake jerked up Iris.

Nave

Above the still street /

the nave of empty limbs /

long for leaves’ hymns.

Homeless

Sweet, sickly scent — /

pine trees piled in the street, /

homeless from holidays.

“Street seen”

Street seen

I wore shadows.

She wore light.

We met in the street.

The breeze played at painting us together.

The sun declined to stay.

For a moment,

As the light faded,

raindrops dappled, and the breeze whispered,

We were as one.

“Limn”

Limn

Street light and shadows, /

the evening limns the ramp, /

silent and waiting.

Heat on the cold street./

Saturday Night Live lights, sounds. /

Sirens serenade.

“Wind”

Wind

Wind blows up my street /

and love is but a scoundrel /

pushing me like leaves.
