the consummate elegance
of the wielded bow,
low tears wrenched from moistened eyes,
released by the cello’s mood.

Pumpkins and candles
coax loud screams from the children
on Eve of all Hallows
Crimson’s creative challenge #52 A stroll in the woods #Limerick

who would often take a stroll through the trees,
when there was no-one around
she would dance and spin gaily around
till her knickers fell down to her knees.

tendrils of vapour carry
the howl of the loon
Heeding Haiku With Chèvrefeuille, October 30th 2019, Bluebells
Best tread warily,
beneath this fragrant carpet,
sleeping fairies lie.

tears plough lines on blackened cheeks
coffins fill the thoughts.
Echoes of playground laughter
in the minds of Aberfan

following a path unknown,
nature takes it’s course
