A palette of color from nature's grace
Bloom and beauty upon Earth so placed
A tree, a flower, a gem, 'tis creation divine
Behold each in its season of time
A palette of color unto me
And so a Moment of Freedom as soul's decree.

October Mood

I feel the warmth of the mid-day sun, the anticipation of the darker and longer night, the earth in its depth of care, the glory upon each leaf now in blushes of gold... and so, "October Mood," from this palette of Nature's grace... 

the richness of the dark earth

the yet warming golden beams of light

the amber waves of Autumn's call

bounty and beauty in tone and hue

this be an October mood.

Verdant Whispering ~ Haiku Reflections

peeking green to see

daffodils to come anew

verdant whispering.

quiver of the grass

robins now in soaring flight

verdant whispering.

twilight be the hour

such sweet calling of the light

verdant whispering.

this glory of green

nature's grace of spring to come

verdant whispering.

carried by the wind

the feeling of green a bloom

verdant whispering.

In the Garden ~ Iris ~ haiku reflection...

...in the garden...

Iris ~ haiku reflection

bloom of nature's grace

beauty be its expression
divinity's joy.
