Prompt ~ Low tide
A snowstorm hits this little ski town in mid-March. They are calling it a March Miracle. I call it a pain in the rear. At least I got a #poem out of it... March Miracle Every tree mummified in cold, white dust. Spring is days away and the landscape dead of winter. The equinox migrators are singing, though.
At least I got a #poem out of it...
Every tree
mummified
in cold, white dust.
Spring is days away
and the landscape
dead of winter.
The equinox migrators
are singing, though.

“For the children,” they stayed— a house holding its breath. I grew up where love lived like that.

Unmotivated
Unmotivated to draw
Unmotivated to write
Unmotivated to even get out of bed
Unmotivated to do anything
but wish I were gone
Forever rotting in my head

It’s Wednesday again. Time for another #humpday #haiku
This week it’s all about the DIY disaster developing at home.
It’s just new flooring
New screed will be needed first
Is your wall floating?

On the old oak where his ancestors breathed their last goodbye,
the ghost of a boy waits in the branches of the sky—
look at just the right moment, and empathy is born in your eye.

I lit a cigarette to forget your name,

Like your memory in endless haze.

Evening arrives
With a much-needed hush
The balm of silence
#dailyhaikuprompt #haiku #poem #shortpoem #writing
Prompt ~ Evening
A pale moon lingered on the edge of sleep
And in her silver hush I laid my grief
Not as a wound but as a trembling rose
That feared the dawn yet longed for it the most
For beauty , even in its dying hour
Builds secret temples in the ruined heart.
