barren saplings of thoughts
strain against conglomerates
praying for rain

shafts of light among taller, barren trunks
dogwoods blossom, a herald
as the woods come to life

Brutal barren breach,
Blasphemous beastly backbites,
Bruising blog babble.
~~
it is haiku but did it in alliteration..
sun scorched barren hills
drape in cloud of monsoon rains ...
verdant carpet spreads

Dried up surroundings
Everything barren and dead
Under winter shroud
Yet life is alive beneath
Patiently waits to sprout forth
as earth around sun
heart around beloved turns
barren to verdant

Hidden yet rugged
At the bottom of the world
Cool water flowing
High above Hell’s barren gates
High above ringed deception
a winter sun rise
barren trees aglow with frost
a blanket of snow
alit like fire from the sun
cover all that once was green
In the immensity of my heart,
a barren field of light ...
A profound unquiet sea never
before sailed ...
barren swollen trees
amidst those calm artic breeze
winter's embraces me

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr 2021
Tendrils of fresh green
misting branches long barren
suddenly appear
Inspired by Carol Browns Springtime contest
Alaska,
Harsh,
Unforgiving,
Cold,
Barren,
Deadly,
Mean,
Lovely,
Beautiful,
Providing,
Kind,
Pleasant,
Extravagant,
Home.
Anger like noon blazing
Parches all the earth below
Leaving it barren
And follow in the dark night
Nothing here shall ever grow
brigand connoisseur
embezzling my precious stones
counterfeit romance
stealing but the refined part
sterile, barren heart remains
A barren desert
Underneath the scorching sun
Like the memories
Those of my dear cherished one
Emptied as the time spins it’s hand
gentle flower sways
loved by the suns warm embrace,
away from earth climbs.
barren the landscape behind,
forever changed creation.
parched barren earth thirsts
unforgiving winds assault
the destitute land

Haiku or Senryu?
gently tides rush upon a barren shore,
lifting gravel from beneath a bare sky,
lit only by the light of the moon pulling waves fast,
Form:
Summerbirds return
Winter has lost its icy grip
the sky is vibrating.
Barren trees are filled with life
close to the Mandau River
When harsh winds strip the trees of leaves,
nesting creatures shiver and grieve.
*For Brian's two-line contest
All sleep is barren,
the night becomes long
The Muse an insomniac
—restless until dawn
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
One giant leap
Lunar dreams
On a barren landscape.

You go treading the tender leaves of grass
Marks these red your cruel brush,
The flowers fall at this scene
No fruit around now is seen.
nests in barren trees
emit rowdy chattering ~

days
of leaves
gold and red
fallen to ground
trees became barren
limbs in mourning
for their loss
cold dark
nights
