Delicate
Kale, content til
Freedom’s breeze
Carried you.
You danced among the trees.
Sky cried the day you fell

Regeneration
On a dark Fall day
Breeze lifts a fallen leaf
A soul is reborn
Haiku
Ephemeral Joy
In the days of my youth
When time was of no essence
No thoughts for the morrow
Entered my lofty world
As I grew vibrantly
In the fresh breezes of life
Enjoying the sun’s kiss
Until touched by Autumn’s breath
I felt the brevity of life
Choka
All Life Matters
In the forest wood
A tiny leaf clings to life
All life is precious
No matter where it might be
Never never give it up
Tanka
Nature’s Beauty
Have you ever seen
A more refreshing scene
Nature’s Art work
A Kale leaf’s beauty
Adorned with fresh raindrops
Tanka
Life’s Book
Never taking time.
Too busy to smell the roses.
Ignoring the clock,
We leaf thru our life’s book,
Reaching the end too soon. We weep
Tanka
Life Change
This season of life
Turning over a new leaf
Old habits falling
Haiku
Leaf Legacy
Living
Among shadows
Of the past’s occurances
Alone I face the future
Certain
That my life was not in vain
It was orchestrated
For a purpose
Fulfilled
Butterfly Cinquain
Based on Psalm 138:8 The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. (ESV)
Leaf Legacy
Fallen leaves create
Pattern on the sidewalK
Dying leaf leaves dye
Haiku
Today while I was out walking, I happened to notice some leaf imprints on a large area of the concrete sidewalk here where I live. I had never seen this before so of course I took a picture and then researched it online to see the cause. I found that when leaves fall onto concrete and lay there decaying they excrete a dye called tannin that stains the concrete and so leaves their image when they are removed. The dye stains can be removed by detergent and scrubbing. I found this to be quite interesting!
