I sit down to write.

 In the cloudy sky above,

a bird in flight sings.

I sit down to write.

In the cloudy sky above,

a soaring bird sings.

I asked what to plant

and where. Today I’d answer,

Some leaves, now brown, hold

fast to their home as new green

buds start to burst forth.

On this cold, grey day

Vast sky shares

bits of blue with leaf littered

February ground.

Shimmying stop sign

asks blustery wind,

“Can’t you read?”.

Bit into banana.

Realized moments need

digesting too.

A Haiku Moment?

Walking in the cold

beneath a full moon, waiting

for the dog to poop.
