lightning
sky
full of roots

plowing through
the comment section again
harvesting grief

#DailyHaikuPrompt (plow) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

melt-water puddles
a toddler searching for frogs
or a dragon

#DailyHaikuPrompt (frog) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

streetlight reflections
my artificial moon shines
from a puddle

#DailyHaikuPrompt (moon) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

Or:

harmony
a frog serenades
the crickets

#DailyHaikuPrompt #vss365 #haiku #poetry #poem #MicroPoetry

twisting her hair
in a new spring do
fiddleheads

#DailyHaikuPrompt (fiddlehead) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

fiddleheads
I sit for a spell
unfurling

#DailyHaikuPrompt #haiku #senryu #SenryuSunday #poetry

yearning to protect
the things we love most
tea cozy

#SenryuSunday #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

weaving through
a bleak spring day
green poodle skirt

#SenryuSunday #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

man-made storm clouds
yet no one reads the message
in the sky

#ScifaikuSaturday (message) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

noise-cancelling
a nugget of nirvana
on the subway

#DailyHaikuPrompt (nirvana) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

three flames
extinguished
nirvana

#dailyhaikuprompt nirvana

seeking nirvana
my fingertips comb through
the record bin
#DailyHaikuPrompt #senryu

searching for songbirds
finding nothing but geese
March sleet

#DailyHaikuPrompt (geese) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

a tickling
in my tummy
catkins

#DailyHaikuPrompt (catkins) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

trumpeting
a bountiful season
daffodils
#vss365 #haiku

blue velvet
the night softly swaddles
a new moon

#DailyHaikuPrompt (new moon) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

A great pleasure to appear in the latest edition of tsuri-dōrō - many thanks to editor Tony Pupello for choosing this one of mine.

full moon waning
the budded cherry
In its change

Friday nights
cruising down Balboa
wild roses
(For my late best friend Jill. Always loved. Never forgotten)
#DailyHaikuPrompt #senryu

evening clouds trundle
north to rain and feed their fields
children play with rocks

#DailyHaikuPrompt #Poem evening

the evening
suddenly darker
scythe moon cuts

#DailyHaikuPrompt (evening) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

not quite budding
shadow of a tree
evening sidewalk

#dailyhaikuprompt evening

the gate opens
after the last school bell
wild roses roam

#DailyHaikuPrompt (wild rose) #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

"Do you bring your blanket into those situations?"

modern times
all the princes are frogs
ne’er a drowning pool

suddenly
the dog stops barking...
lotus blossoms!

seed catalogue
is it already too late
to be the change?

#SenryuSunday #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

just before daybreak
geese, or maybe a foghorn
some kind of warning

breaking
our complacency
cranking geese

#HaikuSaturday #senryu #3lines #micropoetry

a glimpse of sky
through cracks in the church roof
- thin places
