Devotion

Yellow leaves fall
Harsh humid heat;
Earth gathers debris

~~~~~~~~~


Time runs away
Space now bereft;
A change of heart

~~~~~~~~~


Empty space
Nothing much here;
Going away present

~~~~~~~~~


Odd couple here
East meets West;
Lovely colours

~~~~~~~~~


Old lady sells
Daily newspapers;
Sidewalk news sermon

~~~~~~~~~


Humid hot day
Fiery sun bombards;
SPF29 still tans

~~~~~~~~~


Morning crystal ball
Mirror exposure;
Wrinkles and grey hair

~~~~~~~~~


Earthquake tremors
Nepalese tragedy;
So many deaths

~~~~~~~~~


Sense deep loss
Houses collapsing;
Hard times overwhelm

~~~~~~~~~


Tears and pain
Sorry affairs;
Disaster recovery

~~~~~~~~~


Poise styles
Heavy hearts mourn;
News highlights tell

~~~~~~~~~


Crimson colours
A red sun  burns;
Rain dilutes blaze

~~~~~~~~~


Young lady walks
Brown poodle;
Shoes on canine feet

~~~~~~~~~


Just fancy that:
Bad reviews *****;
Footsteps retreat

~~~~~~~~~


Breezy dandelions
Cottony seeds fly;
Swirling sensations

~~~~~~~~~
