Nature's paradox (haiga)

final act

melded hues

scent of death

 ~

rotting foliage

exit with a bang

kaleidoscope

~ 

lie in wait

darkness shades the bed

coverlet of snow

Lay to rest (Tan Renga Challenge # 49)

© C.L.R. 2014

 

                     

before the decay
blessed with breathtaking beauty
reclaimed by the earth

(Jazzytower)

lily once stretched to the sun

wilted petals lay to rest.

Endings (haiga)

school bells

deserted parks

puppy whines

 

sly deviant

robs her innocence

fox howls

 

the old man

lost his way

a bat squeals
 

 lying in wait 

another petal fluttered 

autumn wind

Slipped away (haiga)

© C.L.R. 2013

fresh cut roses

in hope of

new beginnings

summer`s past

a love story

slips away

decayed roses

perish to feed

the earth anew.
