Still Alive (Haiku)

All the fading bits
detract – I am still alive,
passion asserting

(Living with chronic illness, the onset of Winter can be a very discouraging time. I write to remind myself that I am not that easy to deter. )

Flowers greet the rain
face-up appreciation –
nourishment’s glow.

Flowers awaken
imagination – magic
paints the garden bed.

Thank you to Freya for publishing my haiku on pure haiku today. Thank you for checking it out.

August eyes are brown
winking in yellow bonnets –
flirtatious Susans.

Flowers greet the rain –
face up appreciation –
nourishment’s glow.

Potted pleasures hail
Autumn’s arrival – gracious
welcoming party.

Choose to rise above
believe in the certainty
of limitless skies

Brown eyes, unblinking
bat golden lashes skyward –
celestial flirt
