Tonight’s Haiku

autumn moves forward
a rose retaining its grip
upon summer’s dream

A haiku at dusk

Rose at dusk
with dusk descending 
and gently fading sunlight
flowers get their fill

Today’s Word Challenge Haiku: “Adhere”

An Orange Rose

Today I’ll jump over to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge. Our word: “adhere”. Hmmm…


next to the sea
a rose adheres to the cliff
climbing skywards

Tonight’s Haiku: Summer’s Rose

Summer Rose
feeding on sunlight
gracefully growing skyward
now the scent of rain

Summer Rose

A rose in summer
the grace of sunlight
drifting downwards through the trees
junkos in the yard

Sunlight and Roses

Rose
Rose

the grace of sunlight
pulling the rose towards the sky
joy of hummingbirds

A spring rose

Siding rose

the motion of spring
turning sunlight into life
this moment embraced

An Autumn Rose

in the autumn rain
petals holding reflections
ghosts of the summer
