scarecrow waits in fields
for crow to land, mouse to chew
silently shouts boo
scarecrow – a Haiku
Month: August 2015
Round and Round
A carnival doesn’t come alive
Until the sun goes down
The bright snap of multi-color
Neon outlines the ferris wheeeee-l
And the swaying riders in the
Top car are silhouetted against
The night sky
grab – a Haiku
gold finch on sunflower
grabs favorite mid-day snack
picking seeds with beak
Renga Party 1 “in the twilight”
Chevrefeuille, over at Carpe Diem, is hosting a renga party!
He started it off with this –
in the twilight
mist creeps over the fields
stars twinkle
–
Ese added the next bit –
climbing vines of honeysuckle
scented breezes lure out the moon
–
now it’s my turn –
moonglow touches earth
sparkles brightly on still water
diamonds on the pond

Play and Party
Sun and shadows play a game
Run and tag, one hides one seeks
Fun all day across the sky
Done when light begins to streak
And then the stars push them aside
Grand ballroom fills the inky sky
Band plays tunes preferred by moon
disband when curtain lifts by light
mystery school – Haiku
mysterious school
guided by Horus’ right eye
the left looks away
————
remembrance Haiku
needlework pillow
left on her favorite chair
made by time worn hands
complete the Haiku
summer’s closing act
mists over the foreign lands
darkness comes quickly
drinking friends (humor)
heavy sunflowers
leaning shakily toward earth
like drunken sailors
Smiling Man
Smiling Man
there once was a man with a smile
that measured well over a mile
when he entered a room
he swept away gloom
let’s invite him to stay for a while
