Golden hour
Golden hour fruit /
Picked as the sun declined and /
your memories rose.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Pumpkins”
Pumpkins
Orange rounds herald fall. /
Volunteers grown in front yard. /
Evening sun accents.

“Tunashamed”
Tunashamed
Yes, I have been tunashamed.
They descended upon me like ranchers with mange.
They said stop eating that fish, you fool.
Beef’s the only golden rule.
A burger now, a meatloaf later.
Or you’ll be eating exotic gater.
A steak to the heart is the way to go.
This even a vampire knows.
An eye of round, a pound of chuck.
Such cuts of beef will bewitch your luck.
Tender as a filet mignon
Can warm your loins when the nights are long.
No deer, no rabbit, no pheasant will do
When you make a manly stew.
Yes, I have been tunashamed.
I wear the sticker; I can’t complain.
I must do my penance now,
So that later I can eat the cow.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Song”
Song
Listen to fall sing.
A dirge for descending leaves
or a hymn for snow?

Haiku to you Thursday: “Menu”
Menu
The cat food did not /
say, “feeds raccoon,” but one came, /
ate, and left the cat.

Clouds gambol freely, /

Clock ever changing.

Fall is dropping hints. /
Yellow, brown, red, orange notes. /
Winter whispers: “Yes.”

Green near, blue far back. /
Mankind’s river flows between /
