An Evening Walk Cut Short

Autumn sky glows yellow against blue hue sky; turns windy, rainy a long languorous day. Swirls of fresh intoxicating aria. midmorning showers rootless lingering rainbow~ scent of petrichor Outdoors allure afresh, stunning once again. Sun kissed fragrant richer fruitful harvest fields. Woods once rich with leaves fall round and round with wings. quenching nature's thirst harmonious double arch~ whole world auspicious An evening walk to the pond a calming sense; near the bank we saw large bear paws sunk deeply into the mud, quietly cutting our walk short. black bear foraging spawning fish bantering play~ heart beats in slumber 9/7/2020 Let the Pens Flow - Haibun Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Jenish Somadas
