Swans in twilight reeds☽⋅••
Harvest on the wing
Nature's skyward palette
Gnats leap and pirrouet

Heinous
Photo by Jess Chen on Pexels.comMight as well recess
Since they refuse to redress
Cover up obsessed
Heinous and foul felonies
Of the rich and the shameless
we'll see elephants,
polar bears, and sea lions
peacock struts nearby
keep your hands inside the train
that's how they show love, Karen

Pick

pick our brains like a walnut
then discard the shell
conspire with the wealthy
to hoard all that ain't nailed down
Kindred breath
Her's, mine a wabler's song ☽⋅••
Hammering hearts
Under a Waning Moon
Two women kiss

An orchid, romantic things☽⋅••

Warmth shot before the dawn
A thing is just a thing

Geezer
Photo by Quang Nguyen Vinh on Pexels.comA haiku a day
Say error out the geezer stream
Subconscious byway
Even wordy rambles need
Archetypes for real play
On a Poet's Lunch Break
Charming Vista
Water in the lily pond
Royal views
Heaven's Grove Display
A Poet's writing break

Help fund my habit
Huffing #kettle of fish mist
Gets real smelly
Scales fall off of my eyes
As I swim upstream while high
#dailyhaikuprompt Mist High

Kettle mist
A depiction of bliss
Morning milestone
Words steep in a pot
Senryu gently poured

Persuade
Persuade in a way
With a possible win win
Once we had a say
Seems to no longer hold sway
In a world of endless spin
Pallid fairies
Dance within the ring ☽⋅••
Oak tree watching
Moon petals drifting down
Shimmering in the night

Thermal

will get histories blood spray
over sweatshop made
fashionable attitude
thermal winter coat and mask
Swim in the clear pond
Break Narcissus reflection
Overcast ripples
Echo the nymph spell brake fails
Then flowers grow in his place

Wood grown in pine grove
Makes the perfect dirt nap box
Evening rain grain fruit
Set to float down river Styx
One last bow and then #depart

Tangible tangerine tint
Denied the oranges
Many coats of paint later
Subterfuge still seeps on through
