Fertile Spring

.
Winter's white cloak leaves.
Silent truth makes fresh their mess,
Dead with muddied rot.



(Jumbled Haiku from Winter's Mess)

Winter's Mess

.
Muddied, dead leaves rot.
Winter's fresh cloak makes silent
Their mess with white lies.

.
Time passes. We're now
The product of past seasons,
Praying to see Spring.

.

Not a ball and chain,
but security during
Winter wind and rain.

.
Black bark and vibrant
Spring leaves--this old wise tree with
No house to clutter.

.
Feel inside; try to
Fill round holes with this season's
Shiny squares you buy.

Hummingbirds

.
I saw hummingbirds
today. Although late in Spring,
at least they've returned.

Invention

.
Textbooks on Kindle,
But I'm still stuck in winter
fishing with wood sticks.

Fully Exposed

.

All things are mayflies
Dying in hot summer wind.
We're fully exposed.

Over Exposure

.

Trust is the mayfly
That dies in hot July wind.
Over-exposure.
