Remnants of summer remaining
Sunrise over canyon walls, hoot owl calling
Hints of autumn lurking
haiku
Early Summer
desert birds of paradise
lavender, catmint, Mexican hats, feather grass
early summer Joy
Sunday Haiku
scissors snip blossoms
strong storms bring destructive cold
final flowers of summer
Sunday Haiku
crystalline air, intensity colors the atmosphere
dragon stands guard
reblooming lavender iris, scarlet sage, shadows
Sunday Haiku
Geese honking, V flying in an azure sky
Vermillion leaves drift
Monarch butterfly flutters on milkweed
Sunday Haiku
Juniper, sage, grandfather’s cultivators
rain soaked
staccato rhythm on a green steel roof
Sunday Haiku
Gentle wind whispers through junipers
Golden leaves fall
Red tail hawk swoops across canyon
Sunday Haiku
Watching sunset and storm clouds
Great Cosmic Mother
Weeping for lost and lonely women
Sunday Haiku
Sun sets, orange, gold, glowing
Silence settles
Hear the haunting night hawk call
Sunday Haiku
storm clouds gather in the west, rumble
hover over ancient graves
rain drops fall upon the dead and dying
