Dew on grass - haiku bones

fog in the nighttime
rolls over the blades of grass
dew forms for morning!




(photo taken at sunrise this morning as the fog was lifting to leave the dew on the cranberry bogs!)

baby bluebirds eating worms
egg shells tossed  around!

Hummingbird

displacing the air
near my ear, kinda tickles
as it zooms by me

breasts filling, tender
mother wakes with the feeling
two o'clock feeding

the flower turns its face up
soaking in the sun

tear glistened eyes shine
with such love and tenderness

Pregnant

the book spoke to me
its pages pregnant with fear
the ending was bad.

Infestation

on the window sill inside
look up, a hundred!

springing up in warmth
new buds peek through the wet soil
as spring yawns awake

Sleep

sleep comes slowly , nights
your side of the bed, empty
no comfort in dreams

fraught

fraught with angry words
the nights quiet split with rage
domestic violence

Seductive

back arching upwards
tongue peeks out to lick your lip
eyes close with your touch

stormy weather

churning, darkened seas
frothing with wind whipped whitecaps
snow piles on the shore

words whispered moving my hair
warm breath is  a sigh

Food

preparing my meals
I eat like a king, daily
fresh fruits and veggies

Peace

the swing out back, sways
a light breeze carresses me
water laps my toes !

Wet nose and kisses
paws sliding on kitchen floor
cat races away

Incandescent

Hot wire, it glowed
inside of  frosted glasses
light bulbs are no more!

Book

smelling the pages
eyes close in delight at this!
breathe in the words, READ !

Trembling

 

hugs herself, running
looks behind her, he's gaining!
up ahead, a cop!
