Autumn’s Farewell> When autumn leaves from branches fly,
And whisper low a gentle goodbye,
I think of thee, my heart’s soft sigh.
> When longing stirs this silent breast,
Thy lips return and grant me rest,
From them my soul found sweet redress.
> A swan lifts high through morning mist,
The lake below in sorrow kissed,
As thou didst leave, my breath dismissed.

Autumn TwilightAs I look out upon the heavens,
a great sight meets my eyes,
as I look upon the sky.
Twilight has come.
Oh! Wonderful twilight
stretching across the sky!
The song of an unspoken beauty,
the dance of a graceful painting,
the colors of a gentle wave.
Pink, tinged across the blue,
bands of color floating lazily about,...

Year After YearLet the rain fall through the town
From the hills, all around
Watch the flowers grow in sync
They'll stand tall but don't you blink
Then the time of laugh and cheer
Which will never disappear
Fog stays the most of all
Soon after the leaves fall
The chilling age in time is here
With snowfall always near
The year repeats time again
But the...

The Loudest Silence
in the air, just after the storm
there is a stillness,
changing the heart, the soul
so wherever light falls
there are shadows of regret
reflected in the music
the rhythm of serenity
fading beneath the sea of grief
wisdoms shame our deeds
as the stars reveal each pitiful
pleasure, each intimate gesture
in the air, after the storm
in the hesitation of a silent melody
in the...

Indigo MoodIndigo Mood
Skies azure chilling
Birds freely gliding
Zealous hues
Indigo mood
Short drive around town
Growing up in a small house
Fall burnt colors
Leaves wonder everywhere
Miscellaneous places
Afternoon walks
Independent thoughts
Songs travel on
Melody through smiles
Past paint brush fields...

Early Morning InterruptionEarly Moring Interuption
Travelling steamed coffee
Aroma in silence
A lamp early dusk
Trees swaying are curious
Mountains embrace us
From afar
Just pondering ajar
Hinder early morning
Coffee gives me lightning
Wake up to another blessing
Leaves scattered
Poetry thoughts gather
Interrupted eye catching
Overflow clouds dancing...

Heart By The LakeLife is a rollercoaster of emotions
Once you are happy,
In a blink you're sad:
Or in a glimpse of a rage memory,
you'll feel at lost,
regretful of the past.
Our mind's a spring of feelings,
it's up to you
how you react.
Forgive yourself
Is one wise act.
Forgive others
Is a perfect path.
Your real self
Is in a nutshell.
You can...

A Seasonal AffairA frigid spell of arctic air
adorns the tranquil western scene;
a stunning glimpse of fall’s affair
with spring’s vivacious flower queen.
When autumn’s cooling wind combines
with April's warming playful breeze,
a whirling tempest paints designs
on grounds of winter’s icy freeze.
On sculptured hills of milky snows
October's tepid finger strolls,
and May's...

Echoes of AutumnFading gentle touch,
Echoes drift like autumn leaves—
Sweetness slips away.
________________________________________________________________
Author’s Note:
Like autumn leaves quietly drifting away, this haiku speaks to the fading of a gentle touch. It captures that bittersweet moment when something tender slips through our hands, yet leaves behind a soft echo in the heart—a quiet trace of what once was, still lingering in...
