rusty robin red
worm head peeking careful
-retreating again
dusky bat glimpse
random lightning bug sightings
warm star-sky neck-tilt
leaf rake leaning tall
musty leathery work gloves
geese gather sky high
frosty snowmen faces
hot soup simmering--yum
oh these are so glorious, as are the photos of a beautiful home - yours, from the look of it........I really enjoyed these, John.
ReplyDeleteA stunning series of Haiku and beautiful photos.

ReplyDeleteAny poem with a leaf rake in it has got to be great. ;)
ReplyDeletedig this journey through the seasons. Happy President's day!
ReplyDeleteGreat haiku set and I love the photos as well. I especially enjoyed "gift wrapped children!"
ReplyDeleteThese are very nice modern haiku. Please go back and check your syllable counts more carefully, and bear in mind the need for a cut, or turning point, juxtaposing your images.
ReplyDeleteMy bête noire: the confusion of "peek" and "peak", not to mention "pique". If you meant to do this, congratulations. But be warned, it can be easily taken for a mistake.
Let me know when you add your fifth verse! Thanks for contributing.
