I took too deep a bite
Of your poisoned toffee apple;
Sweet on the surface,
But venom in my veins.

Trace – A Haiku
With your restless hands,
Trace my curvaceous outline:
An abstract portrait.

Reclaimed – #writephoto
Dilapidated.
Crumbled walls, rotten rafters,
Exposed, derelict,
Structure reclaimed by Nature;
Cosy cottage no longer.
L’Automne
Indian Summer bathes
Bordelais bounty ablaze
Ground luxuriantly carpeted
In autumnal opulence
Beyond the Sea – A Haiku
Land piers out to sea
In search of the horizon
Ever out-of-reach.

Hints of Summer – A Tanka
Summer’s soft sweet breath
Gently warms the waiting world,
And with sun-flamed lips
She kisses all with brightness
To highlight Nature’s glory.

Morning Dew – A Haiku
Dew-spotted blanket,
Each green blade crystal-budded;
Sea of emeralds.

Burning – A Haiku
Burning attraction,
Ardent, potent, fiery love,
Singeing tinder hearts.

Heartbreak Girl
See that girl there?
The one that you scorned,
With that sad, pretty face,
Tear-adorned.
Indecisive – A Haiku
Sunshine dispels chill
Bulging dark clouds overspill
Wind roars then is still
