haiku #9

a morning glory

blue brilliant and wide-eyed looks

me smack in the face

haiku #8

she walks more slowly

but regular as clockwork

soon she will be gone

haiku #7

the fisherman said

you missed the trail to the falls

but it was too late

haiku #6

we walked in the rain

red and silver umbrellas

talking together

haiku #5

the blue chalk line snaps

shingles are stacked and ready

it's hot on the roof

haiku #4

ode to the remote

our own universal tool

to keep your distance

haiku #3

early october

the fall girl let down her hair

leaves flew off the trees

haiku #2

today in the dell

i saw a bare wishbone tree

limbs raised like a whisk

haiku #1

an errant leaf falls

through still air lands on the pond

like a little boat
