Orange Sky
O sun streak through
Alabaster days
Banish weak torment
Of the morning hazeGlisten into the sea
Adorn the mighty waves
Flee the blinding mists
Brighten with golden raysBring forth the spirit
Of dawn full of praise
Sing from dismal slumber
Out of this dark phaseFor WPC: Orange

Wren
Haiku
Musical wren sings
Sings as it flutters its wings
What beauty it brings

113 Days till Summer
In January we had a sunny day but the wind was ice cold. I ventured out to take photos from the coast. This island with its ruined castle is magical on clear days. Wrapped up I took some photos and the reward was a hint of sun, a reminder of summer on its way, just 113 days.

Future Anxiety
A path, a continual
Fear, willing to hope
A daily ritual
Of being able to copeFuture visions to wait
New plans to withhold
The old, the same state
The constant same oldThe picture, a dream
To feel self esteem
Not wanting to screamNo bird flying high
High flying to the sky
……..Just scraping on byYour prompt: future

Landscape
A squirrel
Leaps abound
Shaken leaves downed
Pine needles found
Trodden into the groundFoliage
And wood
Mache into mud
Soft under foot
Where tractor wheels cutRustling
Of debris
Skyward and see
Birds fly free
Rhythm of land, of tree

Your prompt: landscape
Today’s form: found poetry
Today’s device: enumeratio, it basically means constructing a list, a successive enumeration (duh!) of multiple elements in the same series.
