MyKu-Haiku: September 2011

Thursday, September 29, 2011

All of a sudden
Orange flashes all over,
Contrasts with the green.

Hot afternoon, like
Summer, but mums and asters
Tell another tale.

To-do list: daunting;
Will is strong, eyelids are weak.
Will wins; thanks, coffee!

Five-thirty wake up.
Night-dark, chilly and silent.
Wait; why am I up?

Sleepless nights for me.
My brain wrestles with worries,
Trying to find peace.

Inevitable.
Splash of red on the maple
And geese flying south.

My barometer,
The tree outside my window.
Branches shift and sway.

Imperceptibly,
A shift from green to golden
As summer exits.
