Haiku to you Thursday: “Winter wind”

Winter wind

The winter wind roars, /

fulsome in its bellowing, /

but spring still whispers.

“Open”

Open

Two leaves search for spring. /

Rain falls and searches the leaves. /

New starts and old ways.

“Jingle”

Jingle

Dimes in my pocket /

jingle with the promise /

of larger chains.

“Binding”

Binding

The oppressing hand /

Binds through fear and not respect /

Embraces your hate.

Photo finish Friday: “Hearsay”

Hearsay

A lattice of limbs, /

a cluttering of night clouds, /

a hearsay of the moon.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Time”

Time

Sunlight knows no time. /

Still, it highlights the jonquil /

that will soon be gone.

“Veining”

Veining

Veining across the wall /

shadows of a struggling plant, /

weaving toward Spring’s heart.

Unbidden, Spring blooms, /

poking through neglect and pain, /

yellow and graceful.

Waves in the water, /

waves in the sky, waves hello, /

and waves goodbye.
