Leaves fall from the oak
That overlooks the valley,
A park once farmland.
That sentinel has witnessed
The doings of man undone.

a shoulder
to lean and cry on
the old oak

I have survived;
slowly, fog gives way
to the sunrise

Goodbye bright mornings
we’ll miss you so,
when autumn’s darkness
swallows us whole

Calculator gone.
The figures do not balance.
What are we to do?

autumn oaks desire entrance — acorn-children tap tap tap
on my rain-drenched roof

It’s barely Spring
according to -

The new buds nestled
between -

The autumn leaves.

****
Crimson maple leaf
its color, faded away.

Along with the day
that let it go.

#dailyhaikuprompt #micropoetry #micropoem #poetry

it can’t be helped:

this human animal,
determined in destruction
& addled by anxiety -

but there is light,
making its way in
through the cracks.

i have found it is lighter to live in home of ghosts than to be in an empty house

@blackboughpoetry.bsky.social and @matthewmcsmith.bsky.social Here is my micropoem for #fragmentsfriday. Thank you for the prompt.

Red lighthouse,
I’m so glad
you never gave up
shining your light
through the cold, lonely nights.

A flicker found me
just in time
and showed my soul
the way home
to your beautiful heart.

- Carl M

rain smell

this overcast pre-dawn
my phone
bathes me

Falling leaves produce
a swirling kaleidoscope
of vintage colours
