Garden full of weeds 
  Hard clay under cedar mulch
   Why should I bother

Just learned about syllables in Haiku. Updated...

the polished blade glides
precisely to and fro
dusting the mulch below,
the angled wedge shapes the fall-
timber...the echoed call....

Look you, to the path
Through the copse 
A soft floor of mulch
Bushes tucked in clumps
And across the vale 
And on out beyond
You can just make out Park
And the 7-Eleven...

Putting Out My Brown Hardwood Mulch

Grass was old and would wither;
Four yards of mulch  did deliver;
Pure delight;
To see invite;
Now enjoyment  a great giver.

Mix the sand and mulch
add aeration and fertilizer
Dig a small hole drop in a seed and water
Hopefully it will grow
Into the beauty I desire
Time patience and lots of water
Makes the plants grow tall and strong...

              of rape and shame

          now her perfume’s gone 
     fresh compost came to reclaim
             then a bud appeared 
             earlier than expected 
   should mulch propagate his name

The little blackbird
watches over me.
How do I know
it is he?
It is the nestling
from the elkhorn
covered tree.
The way he gamboled
in the garden spray
and danced
with the roses
throwing the mulch
every which way....

An eddy of dry leaves,
Dancing in the wind 
The dance of death,
Moves to mulch. 
I've seen this falling,
Mr. Eliot, and would say
September is the cruelest month,
Making supper for Spring
Out of lives that must give way
To future appetites....

traveling so long a spell
you see the fallen scream
his horse has become mulch
feeding the ground it sorrows
leaving with peace of the restless king on his back
all is left is his head 
no longer the angry orange sun
but a laying moon
all hail the king...

horizontal landscapes with anthills
ants plant poison pills on mulch trails 

solar breezes inspire physicists
the universe works overtime

earth dances with oceans
becomes desert without mulch

the universe doesn't work anymore
poisoned ants occupy dead planets

Earthbound renegades
Quietly nestle
Beneath mulch rugs.

Their silent vigils begin
From crouched positions
Down deep in shady glens.

Grounded in grassy glades,
Upstarts creep unnoticed
Till they stretch, fully dressed.

These vibrant visuals rise
From underground rooms
Decorating woodland floors....

Ebay, Ebay
How much I pay
to beautify
this old clay!

Munching mulch
in one big gulp
earthworm....
composte this pulp!

Weeds and roots
pull those shoots
raindrops?
Where's my rubber boots?

The fever's on and pollen's a yellow haze
It has me in a daze and a maze
the windy smog
Has to be a short lived stage!...

Warmth of sun upon the ground

Spring forth flowers - spring

Snow drops and primulas

Radiating colours amongst the greenery - evergreen

Leaves of autumn still remain

A mulch and cover for comfort from frost

Lavender velvet green - buds bursting

Renewed growth to flower - violet

Aroma of renewed soil

Life in earth again....

On wooden bench and fresh mulch
Rattles the keys of life
By freckled mammals 
Grazing asphalt pastures
Aimlessly… missing
The rumble of ocean pastel backdrops
Voice of winds 
Caressing ears and cheek alike 
Golden heat rays pour
Reflective images of stars
Whilst blades of yellow
Brown or green
Stand still
And nature sways

Lay

Leaf Mold
Thoughts for 10-27-2016

Soon I’ll be viewing naked trees,
Leaves will lie inactive on the ground.
Moved only by a northerly breeze,
Often betrayed by a rustling sound;

Intermittently, as in years past, 
They’ll pause to relax awhile. 
That’s when I’ll blow, rake, and mulch,
Into my gardens compost pile;

The haunt of an hour
        has found my depth
In silent awe.
Every corner lost,
Every raiment fallen--
        the history of a snowy mulch.

Every eye flowers
        in regal pause,
Softened in this groundless
        light.
What words could ever render
        to another such delight,
Far from every written home
        so forgotten?...
