earth’s sweet shadow

 

taste lunar eclipse
oreo cookie slides past

resurrection vision

 

valley of dry bones

death exhaled, flesh takes new breath

like phoenix rising

Connecting with constellation series at Carpe Diem’s Space Odyssey

summers hummers

 

dusk’s rousing chorus

crickets and cicadas sing

beyond the campfire ring

dewy morning veins

garden pail holds cabbage head

salivates coleslaw

                                                 butterfly trio

white petals flirt

                                  passing wings

                                                        dainty cabbage pests

 


My haiku flits like little butterfly to Carpe Diem Haiku Kai‘s garden of cabbages…

seasons time glass

Joining Carpe Diem’s time glass challenge today!
 
first celebrate
the flowers in your heart
confined in winter

sworl of green stirs heart
first crocus pokes thru soil
goodbye to winter

before evening meal

 
i bow my spirit
exposing caked-on dirt
let you wash my feet
 

prairie silhouettes

June is “summertime” theme at Carpe Diem where today’s prompt is “clouds”…

wisps of big bluestem

black etchings on purple sky

poking ticklish clouds

 

 

pure iowa gold

what could be sweeter
ripe golden ears of corn or
child’s buttery face?

walking through ditch grass
sun smiles on up-turned faces
dandelion gold!

cup of soothing tea
facing toward open curtains
golden warmth of sun.

rest for awhile

behind waterfall

wet sounds overpower stress

cool mist is rising

Linking with Chevrefeuille at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai for a while…

white blossoms

 
 
verdant succulent

thrives beside the salty sea

raises pom-pom cheers

blooming median

beauty wilts between traffic

perfumes city street
