Exhume

Grave-slab clouds exhumed. /

Water wandering wildly. /

Winter almost here.

“Fall flowers”

Fall flowers

Paths of fall color /

Descending from summer /

Color winter’s way.

Old Cowards

Leaves are old cowards, /

falling from the empty love /

of winter’s embrace.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Quixotic”

Quixotic

Young sunflower tries — /

facing winter’s stern shadow — /

to grow and thrive.

preparing you for winter. /

She rests with the trees.

Hints

Fall is dropping hints. /

Yellow, brown, red, orange notes. /

Winter whispers: “Yes.”

“Burnt fingers”

Burnt fingers

Burned by deep cold, leaves /

open to spring’s renewed touch. /

Winter’s fingers crossed.

Sunset

Spring holds hope within, /

waits on the windy sunset /

to sweep out winter.

“Ghosts”

Ghosts

Lost green ghosts of spring, /

clothed frozen in winter white, /

await haunting warmth.

Outside

Outside the window /

Monsters of winter still cling. /

Dry leaves whispering.
