The Haiku Project 2015: October 2015

Saturday, October 31, 2015

Memories deceive.
Much of "the past" is what we
Want to remember.

31 October 2013

Leaves falling like rain
Cover the grass with a red
And fluttering sea.

29 October 2015

A quiet, peaceful day...
Or it would have been, but for
The news intruding.

26 October 2015

(The tragedy in Stillwater, OK.)

1968.
Two remarkable men slain.
And the world was changed.

25 October 2015
(Obviously MLK and RFK.
Stimulated by seeing a play,
"April 4, 1968" at
Indiana Repertory Theatre)

Fallen leaves making
A carpet beneath the trees.
An autumn picture.

(Photo taken today, about 5:00 PM)

Out driving today
Under a red and yellow
Canopy of leaves.

22 October 2015

Childhood memories...
Aroma of burning leaves...
Sun-filled days, cold nights...

19 October 2015

Watching the sun set,
The sky mixed reds and purples,
After a fine day.

18 October 2015

Two things I have learned--
There are cycles in life, and
Thursday is trash day.

14 October 2015

I close my eyes and
Listen to the soft night sounds,
Feel the cool night breeze.

12 October 2015

Up too late again.
Always one more page to read,
One more song to hear...
