MERGE
My soul
Entered his
Ribboning outward
Gathering in
Entangled

#dailyhaikuprompt #crocus

Crocus bulbs awake
Once winter has retreated
As do I, in turn

#dailyhaikuprompt #walnut

She had walnut eyes
And a hard exterior
A tough nut to crack

#dailyhaikuprompt #apple

The front lawn is strewn
with apples, unpicked, rotting.
A waste of sweetness

(I walk by this house on my way to work and wish I could jump the wall and rescue these unloved apples)

#dailyhaikuprompt #willow

Our willow tree fell
And our secret place exposed
Where will we hide now?

#dailyhaikuprompt #sardine

We shoal together
Like sardines in the ocean
To protect from sharks

#dailyhaikuprompt #chill

Here comes that chill wind
Unmissed and so unwanted
As summer retreats

#LuaViEr #acrostic

JOKE
Joviality lives here
Or am I just annoying?
Kidding aside...
Everyone hates me

#dailyhaikuprompt #birdsong

A conversation
In melody and rhythm
Euphonic birdsong

#LuaViEr #acrostic

DANGER
Darkness is here,
Anger and pain,
Never-ending hurt.
Get as far as you can,
Escape this place,
Run from me to safety
