Haiku for One Single Impression

One Single Impression posts: This week's prompt, intersections, comes to us from Haiku Tuna.

~*~

summertime
warbles a siren song
spring echoes

~*~

color spills
calyx meets the stem
throat's curve

~*~

daylight slows
temperature rises
cusp of summer

Soul Mate for Sunday Scribblings

Sunday Scribblingsoffers Soul Mate as the prompt.

ephemeral
as cacti in a sandstorm
as the dreamy unicorn
uprooted in the light

obscure chimera
cavorting in the midnight hour
beckons from the unfound
across a come-hither moon

a song that whispers
for the harmony of other
from that place where
love forgot to go

Poem for Totally Optional Prompts

Totally Optional Prompts offers: Uninvited Guests - what do you do with them?





boisterous birds
shred the silence from

the first warm spring day
shatter my nerves

camera lens reveals
a baker's dozen shriekers

hopping at the diving board
in the pool and out, except

one frightened screamer
who needs skimming

and set aside to dry
his feathers calmed

before the glorious day
resumes its serenity


~~~♥~~~♥~~~
