“Inspired by ‘Failed Haiku’ Magazine”

(on squirrels)

 

I plant rosemary

and it supplants with acorns –

neither is happy!

 

“Sun-Spun Oak Filigree*”

Spun gold filigree*

through an oaken loom welcomes

brisk late-Fall walker!

 

*(My spelling dictionary – mit syllable-breakage – writes “filigree” first with the “I” option.  I go with i. The 6:30ish sunrise slants its rays through the spare – just changing patterns – Live Oak fingers, shattering into prismic shards the golden morning light.)

“Mass Murderer Here – Likes The Crunch!”

murdering oak eggs

along my Sanford sidewalk:

they crunch pleasingly!

“Through Golden Boughs”

sunshine through moss-draped

live oaks paints gold sleeping grass

with growing promise

Dog (Would) Tree Gone, Alas

The tree is gone now,

and the original pic as well;

but I have this bit!
