barbed-wire fence
wears its fall wreath today
captured tumbleweeds
mourning dove
forever asking who
ever wonder why?
wren melodies
pour in my open window
bubble tea
thistle burrs
fasten on all who pass
besetting sins

tumbleweed
caught in a wailing wind
hobo in a box car
all the books
I hope to read someday
paper airplanes
summer breezes
give way to autumn winds
children try their wings
prints on the window
the thief didn’t get away
spot free
Haiku Fluff
Lighter Thoughts
moth
in my pantry
so very lost
dandelion seeds in the blowing dust seek greener pastures
monks scatter corn for their plump geese feathering their nest .
Summery Haiku
flashes of silver in the landfill weeds man strikes again pop cans beside the forest trail signs of intelligent life hopscotch grid chalked on the sidewalk a well planned summer
Universe in Verse
The Ragtime Daily Prompt this morning is UNIVERSE
and I’m cheating. I went through my Dropbox and found a haiku verse I’ve written but never posted.
January night
a starless universe
oppresses the earth
Then I found some verses I did post back in 2018. I’ve edited them so today I present the abridged version:
Lunchtime
onion on cutting board
white flesh exposed, waiting
dissection at noon
my surgical imprecision
cheese slice slithers
on mayo, topped with lettuce.
the Orange and the Green —
a battle on my bun?
meat comes next — salami —
by appointment to HRH!
Does the Queen eat salami?
I chew on the thought
biting my sandwich
I ponder the complexity
of our vast universe
as time stops for lunch.
Spring Haiku
rainy day puddles
collect sparrows
skinny-dipping
robin singing
along with my toddler
perfect harmony
butterfly
flits over my winter-brown lawn
spring in his wings
