Living String of Pearls
Sits upon my window sill
Silent Succulent
Haiku
(I just love my String of Pearls plant that I purchased last summer at our local Farmer’s Market. It sits on the a southern facing windowsill in my bedroom and really seems to like the filtered sunlight that streams thru as it has been steadily growing beautifully.)
In the midst of winter
Flowers in February
Brighten the afternoon
Haiku
There neath my feet
Twas the most amazing sight
An oil slick creature
Haiku
I happened upon another unique oil slick in a parking lot today. This one reminds me of some kind of sea creature. I just love the color
No Jack Frost nipping
No Frosty Snowman dancing
Rainy day in December
Haiku
Beauty surrounds
At the end of another day
Counting my blessings
Haiku
“So sorry”, said the deer
“I had a night craving for
Lilacs and Lilys.”

Haiku Horizons Weekly Challenge Week#248
(Sad to say this is a true story ( except of course the deer didn’t apologize 😊)
My garden plants blooms are becoming food for the deer and squirrels who populate my area.
November winds blow
And leaves huddle together
Raindrops falling fast
Haiku
Brambles verses barbs
Whether fenced in or out
The vine prevails
Haiku
On my walk today
I met very strange chap
Full of energy
Haiku
Frosty Autumn morn
Melts into an evening sky
Streaked by the sun
Haiku
