Late summer, after rain;
In the roadside puddles
Robins drink and bathe.

Hostess climbs
Brilliantly polished
Social ascent

The rest of us
shoulders of giants
Still dwarfed

          - Nara Moore

Dominance Clinging
The long spiral down
Banister polished

Cold morning light;
A buck crossing yards and driveways
pauses to look back.

#poem #poetry #haiku #hokku #nature

Four geese fly—
One lags behind;
Frost on fallen leaves.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Damp December morn;
Amid the camellia’s buds—
A single bloom.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Gray skies;
Crows on the power lines
Shake wet wings.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

First of December;
From chimes on the black cherry
A single note.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Morning fog;
In the deep fallen leaves
Squirrels forage.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Mid-November wind;
Falling and falling through sunlight--
Golden leaves.

#poetry #poem #haiku #hokku #nature

Bitter cold morning;
A hunting hawk flies low
Over grazing sheep.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Overcast fall morning;
Mockingbirds and crows fight over
The topmost bare branches.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Fall morning, clear and calm;
From roadside trees squirrels bark—
A hawk’s cry.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Shadows move on the drive—
Above, a canopy of bright yellow leaves;
November at noon.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

A flying red cardinal
Scatters droplets from the holly bush;
Early November.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Halloween morning;
The sweetgum's leaves--green, orange, red--
Glisten with dew.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Late October;
Heads down on wet trunks, squirrels
Watch and twitch their tails.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

A gray morning after rain;
Flying behind the tree line--
Honking geese.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

A cold Fall morning;
Under the porch eaves
The webs are empty.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

In the sunny patches
Steam rises from cold, wet grass;
Late October.

#poem #poetry #haiku #hokku #nature

A cool October morning;
A mockingbird flies from one sunny treetop
To the next, and the next.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

A balmy sunset;
From opposite sides of the road
Chickadees call.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

A windy fall day;
Caught in the spider’s web—
Tufts of pampas grass.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Five geese flying low
Across the orange dawn;
Early October.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

After the rain,
Crows glide in one by one
To the same oak tree.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

A still Fall morning.
At the top of the tree a Jay calls—
Buttermilk sky.

#haiku #hokku #poem #poetry #nature

Early autumn;
Again, the woodpecker raps
on the house wall.
