Turkeys gobbling
While crows are cawing nearby
Morning at my house.

We encounter things
So strange yet still so common
Children’s services

Haiku for you.

Sky in the water
Clouds turn blue on a river
like boats lingering.

I love the shadows
They reach across my life and
warm my weary bones

Three shades of color
Across an open landscape
Depicting life’s blend

Idling bus riders
Their time means less than schedules
Here next to the road

Ecological
Translates to inconvenience
For the bus rider

I’m not prolific
Haiku just happens because
I have a notebook
