[Quadman2]

I suppose they might have this "lofty" status...but STILL they have to be picked up!

Mind you, there is a recent trend to not picking them up by some lawn experts.


Q

 

[Quadman2]

MEMORY

Age perhaps causes
minds to lose our thoughts of past
events, which is good!

Q

 

[Quadman2]

SEASONS

Changing seasons flow
dictated by earth's tipping
into solar rays
warming surface land, and sea
all temperatures within.

Q A Tanka

 

[Quadman2]

AUTUMN

Warm soft Summer winds
now being replaced by gusts
of cold chilling drafts.

Winter's Wrath

Trees pummeled by winds
Branches clawing at mute homes
trying to find warmth.

Nailed it!

Q

 

[Quadman2]

HOMELESS

You shuffle from tents;
portable homes that lack heat
coping with chill winds
that seep through thin walls of cloth
separating life from death.

LOST THOUGHTS

Memories do fade
and where they hide and reside,
is Amnesia.

Art

Paintings hung on walls
Suspended in space and time
Capturing moments.

 

[Quadman2]

Long flies the mighty
A B-52 soars home
Exhausted debriefs

Now "this" writing is lofty in make-up!

Point well made.

Suspended in space and time
Capturing moments.

Reminds me of Mclean's song, "Vincent".


Q

 

[Quadman2]

MOVIES

Experiencing
events and actions through actors
sharing their events,
we try to appreciate
second hand their roles in life.

Q (Tanka format)

 

[Quadman2]

MEMORIES

Quickly fleeting by
are snatches of our past thoughts
lost in mists of time!

Evening News

One minute sound bites
Sandwiched between commercials
Minimal at best.

Evening News

One minute sound bites
Sandwiched between commercials
Minimal at best.

Unlike times past, wherein the person with the "clicker" in his/her hand now commanded the small screens.

Progress is not always...a positive affair!

"minimal" pretty much sums up your Haiku thought.


Q

 

[Quadman2]

ENVY

Hidden shadowed thoughts
yearning, wanting to be like
someone who they know.

Q

 

[Quadman2]

TRAFFIC GATHERINGS

Herd, pack are words that
describe groups of wild animals,
and for cars; gridlocks!

Q

 

[bluesky]

I like the Doors!

 

[Quadman2]

ME

Who is the real me,
my true inner character
that people can't see?
