pulling threads of stars

Under the rotting linoleum, she finds poets.
The oldest ghost. The mistress of the house. The housekeeper. They have a plan for her.
Still from Princess Kaguya anime: An old bamboo cutter in a bamboo forest, kneeling in front of a small glowing bamboo stalk from which a tiny girl appears.
the old man
sets down his axe—
from the bamboo stalk
a tiny girl blinks
at the morning

river bend—
a floating leaf
changes countries
#haiku #poetry
snow shrinks, puckers,
wide puddles leap on walkers;
heard any geese yet?

I sit for a spell

The slow drip, of my bank account; far from empty, but no longer filling.
The soon-to-be, gap in my resume; not even born yet, but growing soon.
I notice, more gray hairs these days; when will I be, employed again?

moon walk —
the lightness I feel
for a change

white gold —
a spider’s web
touching the moon

Early morning
a hummingbird not disturbing
a branch

Iridescence
alighting
on a blue iris.

the rain
and the tree
writing a life story
all down the dark road
soft-cheeked little indoor moons
shine through the curtains
spring morn
sitting in a room
with cold feet without socks
#haiku
night...
the moon's light
sleeps on the awning

passing by
a thrift store
an old world brooch
on a faded cushion

spring yes spring
the transience of perfection
be held in my hand

a narrow path
through tall ferns~
somewhere ahead
a small bell
ringing

The princess
in the tower finds
a spiral staircase
and walks down and down
into bird-song spring
Today's #tanka for #UnknownFairyTales is especially for @joypops.bsky.social
Love this so much! 💖 I love the progression from the dark, quiet (winter) tower into the bright, bird-song spring. Bird-song spring is a tiny poem all on its own. Thank you so much, Kris.💖✨️
no crown now
only morning light
in her loose hair;
the whole meadow ringing
with bird-song spring
