sycophants applaud
the delusional old man
tilting at windmills

🌑

new moon
the tree frogs
speechless

😶

#haiku #senryu #micropoetry 🐸

her pale ear
pokes through jet black hair
the new moon

#DailyHaikuPrompt (new moon, hunters moon) #haiku #senryu

behind clouds
stealthy hunters moon
stalking me

#DailyHaikuPrompt (new moon, hunters moon) #haiku #senryu

beneath the new moon
after the first kill ritual
blooded hunters moon

#DailyHaikuPrompt (new moon, hunters moon) #haiku #senryu

longing to touch
for more than a moment
transit of Venus

#SciFaikuSaturday (touch) #senryu#3lines #micropoetry

autumn storm
a hemorrhage
of reds

#dailyHaikuPrompt (bleed) #senryu #haiku #3lines #micropoetry

sudden rain
the farmer's market beets
bleeding out

#DailyHaikuPrompt (bleed) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

Mental health fractured
because though hearts are broken
still they turn away

#haiku #senryu #monostich

weariness
sprinkled with love...
each of her footsteps

#senryu

'Summer's Eve'
not what i
thought it was

#senryu

where the trees meet
above the road sunlight
tangled in their branches

#haiku #senryu

an old man selling
pumpkins from his pickup
forgotten crossroads

#haiku #senryu

"Genji" left
on the bedside table...
my man's curiosity

#senryu

leaving...
Duncanville rain falling
on the bus

#senryu

red beans simmer
in the shodyær...
nothing...nothing...

#senryu

child again:
running in the warmth
of other suns

#senryu

on a hook
in a kitchen corner —
granmær's faded apron

#senryu
