poets

I heard an owl outside my window
Breaking dark and morning flight
Then another answers soon after
Together harmony hooting quiet

A leaf is heard falling softly
Autumn speaks a gentle sound
Lagging song bird breaks the silence
And I am the only one around

Rustic red donned the tree tops
Top to bottom as they fall
Sweet farewell for winters coming
Leaving the trunk standing tall

My daughter and my 3 grandchildren and me at a local farm.

My Grandson is life

A day without strife he looks

to clouds in the sky

Sun reflects hope of

Early spring on the river

Seasons hope of change

A frigid morning

A warm soft fire keeps vigil

To hope in this world.

A long quiet run

No souls or creatures about

Just sounds of silence .

Let me see if I

can add miles to my run

As Christmas draws near

Haiku 2019 CMM December

Today I celebrated life!

The sea whispers

Breath comes in and then out

In a distance it sweet roar

Crescendos in a swell

Of soft breeze travels through

I feel tranquilizing sleep

We try to linger in the unknown

We are just too human

So I fall asleep with feelings
