after hours, working steadily- split wood- sighing in sawdust white waterfalls the last to leave winter behind everlasting lovers-- the moon and the sea while the river weaves along, I feel safe to call it home ❊ More Haiku/Tankapolka dots of yellow
among the evergreens autumn announces its passing by rolling up its sleeves single tear a universe landing softly insects coming to life in the window our neighbors attempts at small talk |
robins egg-- I see only half of the sky sun-dried sheets nature embedded memories hawks begin circling; premonitions shaping themselves into shadows hawk wings make the winds visible heartache; the porch light on in the daytime remembering her
the gentle hum of bumblebees crisp scent of cedars- winter's eve another star in the canopy, breathes and still, I love her in black and white filmy memories the only colour, our laughter |
