Dancing in the sun
We spent summer days together
What a pair we made.
Haiku

Dancing in the sun
We spent summer days together
What a pair we made.
Haiku

Standing tall wherever I am
Monoku

Things are not always as they seem.
What we see may not be what is.
Sometimes eyes play tricks,
And our mind does also.
We need to ask ourself,
Is reality
Truly what
My eyes do
See?
Nonet

Cloud cover
Signs in the sky
We keep looking above
For answers to problems on earth
To come
Cinquain

At this sunset hour
New opportunity waits
Just around the corner
Haiku

Twists and Turns
In the road of life
Changeabouts
Curlicues
Can lead to opportunities
If faith is driving
Shadorma

Trees seen whispering
To the fading grass below
“It’s that time again.
Leaves are preparing.
Who’ll be first to fall,
And cover you with color,
Smothering your blades,
Saturating the landscape
With variegated patchwork?”
Choka

August tried to warn
Us of her impending move.
She sent us cool drafts,
Chilling memos of warning.
Yet, wrapped in sweaters
We missed her exiting.
Undercover of night,
With just the moon as witness,
Fall bearing September came.
Choka

Scent of Fall swirls as
Gossipping leaves rustle
September arrives
Haiku

I sit alone
Watching the world
Passing me by
Wondering why
