Glazed Acorn [Haiku]

Winter storm
ices over acorns:
branches hang low.

Winter Forest [Haiku]

Photograph taken in Van de Graaff Park near Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
evergreens peek
over the shoulders
of barren hardwoods.

Stumped [Free Verse]

Photo taken on the Butch Kennedy Hiking Trail near Lake Hartwell in South Carolina.
A stump in the forest
is like a gap in a
wedding party photo
where they photoshopped
out a renegade relative,
but forgot to erase
the person's loafers.

bare branches,
in the Winter forest,
look frost-covered.

Autumn [Lyric Poem]

The chill is here.
The sky never
bluer.

The colors turn,
with leaves ever
fewer.

Until a last
hanger-on yields
to a weak breeze.
