Seasonal

The leaves lay spread amidst a coverlet of snow-
one a bit early, the other late in season

Tsuyu: The Rainy Season

As the conductor takes the stage,
The gentle drone of the audience
Turns to apprehensive, expectant silence
Awaiting the impending down stroke.

But before the ictus,
His rushing lift of the baton
Sends forth a gust of wind,
Chilling the air,
While raising the heat of anxiety.

Fall Welcome

Free Image

Cool breezes & hot cider…

Pumpkin pies & cozy fires,

Fresh, picked apples, filling baskets…

Warmed toes under thick blankets

Fallen leaves crumpling under our feet…

Children going trick-or-treat

Fall, welcome…

Welcome, fall  ©JLH

A Fond Farewell

Veins of auburn and burnt orange
Adorn the wooded mountain side.

A dense mist shrouds the valley
Hanging so low as to blur
The boundary between cloud and fog.

~ Haiku

 

Pouncing cloudlet sky
Bellowing wind whistles
Whirlwind of leaves.

Colours softy blend
Soft fall breezes passing by

Clinging frozen fog

Squint of snow blind eyes
Burst of winter sun beams stream
Dimond dust landscape

Sun how bright your beams;

As a coquette
You withhold your warmth

Beguiling

~ Tarnished ~ Haiku

 

Renting of the veil
Ascending spirits take flight
All-Hallows-Eve arrives
