Idolatry
shocked by golden calf
first commandment smashed to bits
idolatry rests
Savant
a savant alert
person of the forest smart
orangutan smiles
Taffeta
silk moths on green leaves
crawling home to find a mate
eggs for taffeta
Rook
rook fishing earthworms
beheading the earthworker
parliament awaits
Prism
ice shards glistening
rainbow colours refracting
locked inside a prism
Hamartia
slug moths – warning light
signposting the slope below –
Hamartia tread
Susurrus
oak leaves in faint breeze
acorns blown across the grass
susurrus passes
Boxer
a boxer – fortune
dragon sparking hope of gold
bamboo grass thriving
Heel
a buck stands at heel
watching his moon brother smile –
silent stalker owl
Starscape
under a starscape
earthworms play with cosmic dust
galaxy renewed
#VSS365 #Starscape
Elgar the owl 😊
owl on frosty branch
hoots variations through time
an enigma stares
Guru
sunrise clears the dark
guru enlightening day
obscurity fades
Primordial
dandelion in gale
a primordial nightmare
seeding the landscape
jack and jill boxing
across a liminal stream
the sun and the moon
#hares
Haiku
an old branch fallen
submerged in river water
aging, gracefully
Haiku
Katana blade – slash
Warrior falls – soil is red –
Blowflies approaching
Haiku
pitter patter rain
drops on glass of the window
reflects on my self
Haiku
pitter patter rain
drops on glass of the window
reflects on my self
Haiku
shape of the rainbow
Payne’s grey cloud ready to pour
cows curled in the field
