Light Music

An amber sunset

Makes bronze the bamboo curtains

Spring sky Robin blue

Dream-seeded crystalline stars

Escorting the opal moon

Chain Reaction

Ah

The leaf

Caught the wind

And learned to dance

Amused were the birds

Who soon joined in the fun

Flowers swayed with wind’s magic

Butterflies, bees, and dragonflies

Making merry in celebration

The humble leaf took a well-deserved bow

Sweet Sight

How beautiful it is

When copper-colored leaves

Are all that’s left on trees

Bright blue the sky

Haiku 10/30/22

Autumn morning fog

Birds silhouetted in trees

Green becomes golden

Air Tales

 

Beware the gossip shared

By the chatty west wind

Boring captive leaves limbed

Dishing the dirt
