Tanka Poem: Connected

Love Locks
Cologne Germany

Connected

familiarly eerie 
upon the first encounter 
our approach guarded 
translucent light of my life
now your treasured memories 


Used words:  eerie, guarded, translucent, for "3 Word Wednesday"

The Bridge is covered with these Love Locks. 

Haiku - drive

Drive

cold winds resistance
a bitter opposition-
yet we must drive forth


Note: Photo was taken bys Me in Michigan with a special effect added here on Google+.

Haiku - Meander

Free Flowing

Summer meander
the day flows carrying you
aimless as a stream

Inspired by:

Haiku - Trust

Tree Blossom from this last Spring.

Trust 

from tall tree petals

Spring snow each in place grounded-

with soft acceptance

This is from some Cemetery Photography I did
when I lived back in the States.
These are old tombstones under a Tree
with petals from that tree.

The Minute Poem:  

Simple Things

Memories of crisp cool air

Now you are there

Autumn blooms

How the past looms

Forest visitors came to call

Feed time for all

Return each day

With names to say 

At the time it seemed rather stale

Now just a tale

It is yet gone

But still lives on.

Haiku - autumn harvest blooms

autumn harvest blooms
now how i long for those days
woodlands call me back
