Gloomy skies above
Melancholy moods below
Crestfallen heads droop
Haiku

Different types and forms of poetry I have written
In a Flash
Youth was here and then
One blink and it was gone
Hummingbird at feeder
Haiku
Zinnias
Dancing in the sun
We spent summer days together
What a pair we made.
Haiku
Resign To Reign
Standing tall wherever I am
Monoku
Truth or Fiction?
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
Prayers
Cloud cover
Signs in the sky
We keep looking above
For answers to problems on earth
To come
Cinquain
Turning Point
At this sunset hour
New opportunity waits
Just around the corner
Haiku
Vicissitudes
Twists and Turns
In the road of life
Changeabouts
Curlicues
Can lead to opportunities
If faith is driving
Shadorma
Tree Talk
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
Sighting September
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.
