Echoes of Autumn
Fading 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...

Premium Member Lingering leaves of gold frolic in the autumn wind
"Lingering leaves of gold frolic in the autumn wind," Swept up by bygone breezes, already collapsing before they begin, As disillusionment clouds an overtired soul— Misplaced and irretrievable To a society that ravenously disembowels empathy, Twists and mangles trust until it becomes unrecognizably disfigured, Leaving the carcass to be plucked by bone-thin vultures, Fed by culture’s apathetic, parasitic narcissism, Under the boiling, pre-winter sun. ...

When Love Leaves Home
Once upon a time on the sands she thought she found true love then one day he went his way what was she dreaming of now she walks the shoreline alone along the low water mark searching for seashells on her own from sunrise until dark at the end of the tunnel there's always a light a ray of hope...

Beneath the Leaves
Beneath the warm sun, we wander through the tangled branches my grandfather's hands gentle, like the tree itself, rooted and wise He points to a ripe fig, its skin a the color of a jewel. I reach, as he coaches me ripe and unripe Conversation is exchanged his grumbly Italian voice echos like a simple song on the summer day He tells stories under the shade,...

WHISPERS IN THE LEAVES
[Verse 1] He lived where silence made its home In a house of creaks and dust and stone No letters came, no voices stayed Just shadows dancing through the day Then one soft knock, a bloom in hand A stranger smiled, said, “It’s been planned” He said, “Not mine,” she said, “It’s free” And left him with a mystery [Pre-Chorus] And he said, “Why me,...

Premium Member The Rustling Leaves
Amber, crimson, golden light, A painter's dream, a wondrous sight. The autumn wind, a whispered song, Where rustling leaves all dance along. The Equinox, a fleeting spell, Its blessings cast, its stories tell. In fleeting hues, the trees bestow, A fleeting fire before the snow. The branches...

Premium Member Taunted by Trees and Leaves
Why to you have sides, front, back, left and right besides, betides? I'm offside, on no one's side. Why regret and hide the gnarls, scars and wrinkles on your hides? Why be ashamed of the 'love-me-dos', cut into your trunks, by strangers with sharpened blades? Why do you hide and cower in my shade and not reach up with...

Premium Member In the flow of time where memories float like leaves over the silent river
In the flow of time where memories float like leaves over the silent river, I will keep in my soul our kisses, lips burned by the fire of love, And how you gave me everything you had, every corner of your soul and every dream, And I offered you what was left of me, pieces of sky and...
