Grass & Rock [Haiku]

a shoot sprouts
in a shallow divot,
on the rocky cliff.

Stony Landscape [Haiku]

in the Springtime,
wildflowers grow around
stones and boulders.

Snowy Mountains [Haiku]

across the lake,
the snowy mountains stand
in denial of Spring.

Ambiguous Spring [Free Verse]

The copse of yellow-green
trees isn't sure whether it's
Spring or Fall.

(It's Spring.)

The breeze coming off the
snowy mountains across the valley
thinks its winter.

Only the wildflowers &
some feeling I have inside
know it's Spring.

Thistle [Haiku]

heavy-headed thistles
sway in the cow pasture,
bees read their motion.

Grazing [Haiku]

horses graze upon
dandelions and green grass,
under snowy heights.

Mixed Messages [Haiku]

harvested fields
sit dry and barren
as trees flower.

Wistless Sway [Haiku]

bees on wildflowers
ride out the breezes,
in wistless sway.

Hardwood Clock [Haiku]

chartreuse Spring leaves
tick their way toward matching
the evergreens.

Spring Break [Haiku]

distant hills
are now green & rain clouds
have fragmented.
