Dawn's Serenade
by Chris Green
Dawn’s Serenade
Pacing the foothills of adoration…
collecting thoughts on garden walkways,
reaching for a hyacinth,
strolling neath an arbor of opened arms
yearning for your heart in fragrant aromas...

Blossoming like a beautiful red rose,
Friends stopping by to say hello,
The sunshine fills us with warmth and happiness,
Trees stand...

They sit talking to themselves like they are...

Following God who calls me by name
I now stand looking through the window
Gazing at a beautiful rainbow
Below the rainbow...

HAIKU MAZE 4
by Leon Enriquez
Dreary skyline
Wet morning hurls;
Moisture mists cloud
~~~~~~~~~
Flooded roads
Too much rain;
Abrupt torrents
~~~~~~~~~
Umbrella parade
Floating parasols;
Dry agendas
~~~~~~~~~
Crowded walkways
Feet zigzag;
Wary wet outreach
~~~~~~~~~
Traffic deadlock
Accidental rain;
Careless collisions
~~~~~~~~~
Rainy day surrounds
Nowhere to hide;
Open shelter...

HAIKU PATH 1
by Leon Enriquez
December rains
Hurl aqueous tears;
Salty aftertaste
~~~~~~~~~
Monsoon season
Wet and wet again;
Abrupt mood swings
~~~~~~~~~
Seek knowing
Beyond word count;
Awareness sums
~~~~~~~~~
Wet market lanes
Slippery slimy walkways;
Jerky footfalls splash
~~~~~~~~~
Bargain hunters
Black Friday sales;
Mob mentality
~~~~~~~~~
Hot...

HAIKU MOMENTS 23
by Leon Enriquez
Aqueous darkness
Rainy windowpane;
Warm shelter
~~~~~~~~~
Journey joys
Sublime moments;
Ages ago
~~~~~~~~~
Words unfurl
Paradoxical lot;
Decipher feeling
~~~~~~~~~
Haughty culture
Arrogance limps;
Self-indulgent
~~~~~~~~~
Old man
Blank stares hint;
Lonely devotion
~~~~~~~~~
Watering hole
Crowded after hours;
Funny monkeys
~~~~~~~~~
Kitchen fuss echoes
Meal time crackle;
Feisty commotion
~~~~~~~~~
Bedroom...

Autumn fire
by Dr. Upma A. Sharma
Autumn fire
Veils of orange and red
camouflage in season,
Quenched intense heat
in chills set to quiver,
yellow leaves turn crisp,
swing and dive,
Aroma of Liberty
taking them to roads,
Rugs...

Summer Storms

Following a day of stillness and intermittent sunlight, comes the storm.
Hushed breezes, hot, humid clutching to the skies now race through the trees.
Late afternoon, darkness...

The Sweat of Summer

It is the sweat of summer,
these starving days.
It is as if there were
no rain until summer,
then dry rain only.
The walkways are dry,
remiss,
all ashen in the...
