Haiku-a-day
The sky at sunrise with wispy clouds in rows and a sliver of a moon.

Dawn sky, a figure —
clouds like a pair of pink lungs,
the moon a freckle.

Haiku-a-day
A white-tailed deer laying in a patch of sun in the woods.

Asleep in the woods,
she wakes to find us looking
at her silent face.

Haiku-a-day
A sunflower in an interior with a sleeping black and white dog blurred in the background.

The peace in caring,
under fog, sun, sunflowers —
the sigh and the breath.

Haiku-a-day
A wide view of the morning sky with a three-quarter moon still visible in September.

Looking up, amazed,
tired under the morning moon,
the grief before grief.

Haiku-a-day
Seeds from tall sow thistle float into the air on a sunny day in September.

September wind sails the seeds
from the soft sow thistle heads —
it’s how things begin.

Haiku-a-day
A clouded sulphur butterfly perched on a tall sow thistle turning to seed on a sunny day in September.

Thistle goes to seed,
her pale green wings like two sails,
she and I are small.

A red-legged grasshopper clings to a screendoor on a sunny day in September.

Patient grasshopper,
I water the marigolds,
two weeks before fall.

Haiku-a-day
A Great-spangled fritillary butterfly landing on a white snakeroot on a sunny day in late summer.

The fritillary
takes a rest on the snakeroot,
wings of crescent moons.

Haiku-a-day
A blurred early morning view of a sidewalk by apartments with the setting moon against a dark blue sky.

Early on Sunday
out under the setting moon,
we’re changed and we’re changed.

Haiku-a-day
A treeline after sunset with clouds still showing but stars coming out.

Taking our turn here —
trying not to lose our touch
under tender skies.

Haiku-a-day
Pond fish gather and point in all different directions just below the surface of a sun-dappled pond in late summer.

The late summer fish
gather as we approach them
at the warm, deep pond.

Haiku-a-day
A September sunrise with puffy mackerel clouds against bright blue sky.

I’m wrongly forlorn,
the wonderland we’ve been in
has never been lost.

Haiku-a-day
A white-tailed deer stands eating thistle leaves with goldenrod in bloom behind it in late summer.

We hear her crunching
in a patch of tall thistle
as we walk out our grief.

Haiku-a-day

His nose is awake —
under every green leaf,
sadness and delight.

A treeline after sunset with clouds still showing but stars out.

There’s grief in these trees,
clouds of the day still showing,
stars just coming out.

A white water lily opening on the surface of a lake among lily pads in summer.

The water lily,
it’s embroidered in, tied off,
like a French knot.

Two orange striped clouds in the pre-dawn sky above a silhouetted treeline.

Up two hours ago,
I was here with Orion,
moon under the trees.
