Fluid Movement [Haiku]

floating downstream,
 moving unpredictably:
  a dry leaf. 

Lazy Cowbell [Haiku]

bovines graze
 in desiccated pastures:
  lazy cowbell.

Autumn Crickets [Haiku]

distant cricket chirps:
 from the next hill, I wonder?
  now, one at my feet.

Autumn Shore [Haiku]

cool blue skies, &
 dry grass on the hillside --
  seashore in Autumn

Early Autumn [Haiku]

the shelterbelt,
 surrounding the farm, shows
  hints of autumn hue.

Seasons [Free Verse]

I

I remember Spring:
   tight and tender buds,
   soon to blossom

clouds -- low & swollen, 
   & rain scent in the air
II

I remember Summers:
   the season of freedom...

and mosquitoes,
   but, also, fireflies

exploration &
   calamine lotion
III

I remember the Fall:
   harvest time

Grain chaff in the air
   axle grease on the wind

Canadian geese
   Honk-Honk-Honk-ing
   in wedge formation
IV

I remember winters:
   snow days

snow drifts

the feel of the first morning
    of the season in which
    one woke up to a blanketing snow,
    having gone to bed with 
    pathetic matted grass

The Autumn Trail [Haiku]

the autumn woods -
 leafless & grass matted - is
  rife with life, unseen
