Vagaries of time
Small moments extend, large shrink
Fragments of old songs
#DailyHaiku #haiku #Wednesday

asters at edges
keepers of the boundaries
colour in the rain

Haiku:
And there goes the sun
Settling behind the landscape
Sleep little sun, sleep

Beneath the window,
Breaking into my dreams,
Foxes screaming.

unexpected face
an old friend at my window
the moon on its rounds

Spectacles in lights
Sun and moon, stars and streetlights
Illuminations

Haiku:
Cautious not to shrug
With the world on his shoulders
Stoic til the end:

"I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader shoulders."

Rodents foraging,
Surrounded by chewers,
Busy and shy.

fingered in the dust

New week, old projects
Dusty notes on faded sheets
As new projects rise

Haiku:
Sneaky little sneak
Camouflaged like a green leaf
On inspection: Bug!

A shift in the wind,
Reaching deep in the closet...
Sweater weather.

lying dim in the gutter
the eight of diamonds

Moments caught in ink
Spidered words, shadowed pictures
Memories held tight

on a fallen twig
in sympathy with the moon
lichen makes craters

Haiku:
Between two brick walls
Tucked away in a corner
Ready to set sail

Mourning doves settle,
Haunting calls fit the season,
Face the sun and rest.
