Change

Grey mist, like cotton
snagged in tree branches, gently
dissolve in sunlight

Swoon

Unexpected touch
gentle on your lower back
Memories of love

Wrinkle

Brow, furrowed, deep thoughts
Eyes, squinting, future gazing
Nose, crinkled, wide smiles

Summer Travels

Dash of red pepper
on juicy melon slices,
Piquant summer days

Weak

A hollow tree trunk,
devoured over seasons,
tumbles in a storm

Flow

Strong active poses
Warm slow breathing through pressed lips
Sun salutations

This OSI prompt made me think of a previous haiku but went a different route here!

Twilight (2)

A dusky sundown,
fireflies gleam at random.
Nature's twinkle lights

Twilight (1)

Curtains

White lace rustles, waves,
through open bays, a token
of winter's slumber

Monday

A crisp clear dawning
dark tea steaming from a thick
black mug, a slow start

Texture

unshaven cheek rubs
kitten's tongue on fingertips
coins in pants pocket

One Word

To have a fresh start
embrace a future of hope
he said one word -- Yes

       ~~~

To escape a life
of pain and degradation
she said one word -- No

       ~~~

To build a world where
one plus one can equal one
they said one word -- Love

Live Water

dark murky depths crush
ocean brine puckers and stings
sightless creatures thrive

Listening

sanguine currents rush
over a back beat tempo --
carmen corpus

Smoke

Languid spirals drift up
blessed sage cleansing us all
bittersweet comforts

Farewells

Staying up past dawn
Immortal notions of youth
Smiles on a smooth face

~~~

last breath in my arms --
nestled in a hand-hewn box,
but snug in my heart

Fork in the Road

Stand and stare, stock-still
March by mysterious means
Turn on trodden tracks

Circles

Round and round, she curls
dreaming of warm embraces
kitty coterie

Twilight

Glowing eyes wink out
Gentle rustle of crushed leaves
Sleepy warm sighs, chilled

Spectral

Out of touch and sight
a presence still palpable
warm breath on my neck

Movement

One step forward, but
three steps back, my heart he glides
a forsaken waltz
