end of summer
mulching, deadheading and pruning
during quiet morninigs

Summer Haiku is closing

It's time for Summer Haiku to come to a close. Sadly I will not be able to host an Autumn Haiku this year, but hope that someone else will volunteer to carry on the tradition!

waving goodbye
to a new friend -
summer's end

hot laundromat
she speaks Korean
I use hand gestures
new tendrils
reach into thin air
morning glory
end of summer
different watering schedule
another shift change
last days of summer —
patches of gray
in my five o’clock shadow

after the rain
morning glories wrap around
blooming mimosa

Tuesday, August 28, 2007

morning glories climb
the dry sunflower stalks
corn moon*



*American Indian name for the August full moon (today)

Joy

after the shower
temperature drops
to 80F!
in the fourth watch
light from lunar eclipse
bathes a burning bush


eclipsed moon
the palm sized dog
touches my heart

summer returns-
brown tipped grass
in neighbors' yards

cicadas
cicadas
in the last movement~
summer symphony
morning stroll
the sounds of dry leaves
before autumn
3 AM
weeding and watering
before weekend shift
evening light ~
the blue transparency
of a dragonfly

lumière du soir ~
la transparence bleue
d'une libellule
dog days —
I keep killing
the same mosquito
