amidst the birdsong
and the days getting warmer
petals are falling
Facing Forward, Pursuing Progress
amidst the birdsong
and the days getting warmer
petals are falling
Here’s my contribution to today’s FOWC (Fandango’s One-Word Challenge): lucid. In keeping with my current blogging focus of haiku, here you go:
as dawn’s light rises
my dreams brilliantly lucid
fading as I wake
the motion of spring
turning sunlight into life
this moment embraced
a feast for the bees
gently swaying in the breeze
the arc of sunlight
mountains to the west
sunlight upon the water
flowers near the trees
against the darkness
memories of trees echoing
forgotten forests
a little arm pain
with a burst of weariness
I listen to birds
after the rainfall
clouds parting for the sunlight
jewels left on the leaves
petals scattering
memories of fading spring
summer whispers “soon”
Watching the trees shed their blossoms’ petals is both beautiful and sad. Summer comes on the death of spring.
mists flowing through trees
moisture upon the petals
dreaming of the sun
