haiku – Page 6 – One Woman's Quest

October Walk

Romantic nature
paves the path with gold – river
adds sweet harmony.

(For RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: river/ path. Image from personal collection.)

Faulty Vision

Cupped hands gather tears
dreams once clear now misted, gone –
nostalgic ideals.

(Written for RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: water/ smoke. Also for Reena’s Exploration challenge – image featured.)

Mallard

In Mallard’s wake woe –
with clipped wings, I watch and yearn
for Winter sojourn.
(For Granny Shot It’s Bird of the Day, and RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: wake/wail)

Cormorant

Feathers fanned pronounce
prowess of river raven –
deep diver, swift flight.

Shine a Light

Winter breath catches
shine a light to guide me home –
darkness unsettles.

(For RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: air/ lantern. Image from personal collection)

Do Explore!

Through thickening brush
light whispers, beckons – forest
ripe with mystery.

(For RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: forest /whisper. Image from personal collection.)

Autumn’s Rush

Autumn winds fevered –
constraint not an option when
fierce Winter follows.

(For RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: fever/ fierce)

Bald Eagle

I am in awe of the eagles who have made our neighbourhood home. To see them up close is such a blessing.

For Granny Shot It’s Bird of the Day, and for RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: pure/ serene.)

Harmonic Convergence

Be as trees, reaching
canopy of harmony,
gratitude implied.

(For RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge: gratitude / harmony. Photo from personal collection.)

Best Medicine

Laughter, like sunshine,
cleared the air, painted our hearts
verdant love renewed.
