why
does the moon
hide behind a cloud
leaving me lonely and sad
you my silent midnight friend
bright spot in the dark
shine on me
moon

leaf – a Haiku
golden autumn leaf
tires of holding hands with branch
falls slowly to earth

Windy
She is the wind
The clouds drift by
On her breath
The waves reach up
as she passes and
Trees bow before her
She is gentle but
When riled she
Causes destruction
Without compassion
She is the wind

scarecrow – a Haiku
scarecrow waits in fields
for crow to land, mouse to chew
silently shouts boo
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
