gentle calm descends
between wisps of wind-whisked clouds
and the wren's return
reveals stories in early hours,
dispatches from wild unknown
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
storm clouds pass us by
grey abandoning to blue
sycamores' shadows
hand us brushes of colour
to paint fine lines of dreams
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
late moonflower buds
and gold dust of marigolds
weaving memories
into thinning cloths of summer
our souls layer for warmth
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
cold deep night lingers
the Monoceros gallops
behind Orion
spiders scuttle from weight of storms
clearing the air we might breathe
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
on rain-soaked asphalt
slow fog fades, heavy with dreams
the universe calls
that we might find our way home
by the stream with wild roses
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
sickle moon laments
of universes yet undreamt
of fallen petals,
fragments of small tales, we cradle
in baskets woven of time
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp58 
fog-laden hours,
threads of clouds faded and frayed
like verse yet unspun
of half-dreams in deep of night
through which a fox may roam
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp58 
morning light dances
settling upon moments
stealing through the cracks
as thieves, we hold onto time
catching words like butterflies
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
a lavender dawn
the irate robin complains:
how fast the days pass;
we will memories to remain
waiting for shadows to fade
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
the half moon lingers
on the long edge of deep night
silence drips with dawn
and we draw new constellations
to remember who we are
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp58 
days lost to the wind
rain dotting upon windows
robins discussing
whether it is Wednesday, or—
it could be Thursday, and—
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
late blooming flowers
under fog spin of snow clouds
while aspens stay green
and we walk by the wild stream
wearing hearts upon our sleeves
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
stars hidden from view
thunder in the far distance
clouds echo with rain
and we dwell safely at home
waiting for the sun to shine
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
starling postulates
among woods fast turning gold
time flies and flutters
floats upon sketches of dreams
graphite lines to colour in
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
chattering chiffchaff
and the sycamores whisper
about secret joys
we harbour in deep pockets
of our autumn coats
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
soft light diffuses
through cobwebbed pasts, liminal
time, a cold cascade
waits upon a beach of sand
for message in a bottle
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
a ghost moon lingers
the dust of the day settles
in holding pattern
time, an unknown river — still
frozen in summertime
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
morning flows from night
seeking solace under stars
a year's worth of dreams
lost selves wandering, waiting
in a maze of empty rooms
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
the last bellflower
to which a blackbird would sing
as she passes by
weaving new days to remember
time flows again through the chalk
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
treasures like silver
carved into a darkened sky
a shy moon, resting
telling stories in silence
that I am because you are
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
small seeds of new dreams
hide among fade of flowers
bide their time, and wait
for memories in our bones
to wake and hold our hands
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry #bspp57 
songs of yesterdays
dance on today's autumn breeze
that tomorrow comes
love lingering upon our lips
kindling the fire within
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
where two branches cross
a dove perches, wondering
what the day might bring
#haiku #micropoetry 
slow shadowless days
and silent nights without fear
we know who we are
the memories in our bodies
distilled from yesterday's stars
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
memories flicker
like fireflies in the dusk
and we reminisce
in silence of empty rooms
hearts beating in the dark
#haiku #tanka #micropoetry 
shadows sharp like teeth
in the fade of purple blooms
searching for silence
#haiku #micropoetry
