Silhouettes against pale sky
Tatters of Autumn

Morning fusillade
Acorns pelting from the trees
Pings and thuds galore

Crisp chill in the air
Bright splotch of orange in oak tree
Fall shows its colors

Haiku: Weather Amnesia

Tarp covering pool
Lounge chairs stored for the winter
Declare summer’s end

Yet hard to believe
Squirrels still gathering acorns
Fall sunshine beams warmth

Not a bad trade-off
Bright colored leaves and white snow
Will come in due time

Haiku: Fall House Cleaning

Muse has been drowsing
Beneath life’s daily matters
Awakening now

Cleansing rain falling
Breezes create refreshment
Words begin to stir

Family heart work
Enters time of fruition
Now space for my soul

Noisy acorn bombardment
Strikes metal table

After Sunday’s snow
Morning sets fluffy white clouds
