Clouds slipping away
Sunshine bathing the green leaves
Drying up the rain

Vultures
I did a series of shorts on my Verse of Nature Channel for vultures. I saw this bird eating a carcass in our neighborhood and then sitting on a roof. Looked ominous. Grabbed my phone and started recording.
First up is the first short – the one from the roof top.
Second one is from a driveway.
And feeling inspired I created this creepy haiku.
Do you enjoy vultures or do you find them creepy or ominous?

Daily Prompt
How do you feel about cold weather?
I think this Haiku answers this question.
Tropical beach bar
Open to the warm sea breeze
Nestled in the palms
I do not like the cold. Prefer warm days and sand under my feet. Can I tolerate it? Yes, but only if I have to. I do enjoy a nice snowfall but it’s the only part of winter I really enjoy.

The Honeysuckle Poem
The Honeysuckle Poem
Digging back in the archives for this one.
The Honeysuckle Poem
When I walk,
I love to smell,
Honeysuckle.
I love to see,
it hanging,
from the vines.
I love to see,
it blooming white.
I love to taste,
its nectar,
growing wild.
Yes,
I love the Spring,
the warm weather,
and
Honeysuckle.

Haiku – 4/17/2024
YouTube videos
Chasing an elusive star
Hoping for success
+
I have run a Podcast for about 4 years, Song Lines and Tan Lines, and that’s tough to put together week in and week out, but YouTube, that’s a totally different animal. Not only do you have to nail the audio, but the thumbnails, and the video too. Crazy how much work goes into making a YouTube Video and a YouTube Channel. I do have two new shorts available if you want to check them out. Thanks for following and putting up with my many adventures in the fiction world.

Haiku – 4/13/2024
Welcome to springtime
Heat to air conditioner
Cool mornings, warm days
😝
Woke up and the house was cool. Checked the weather and it was 49 degrees Fahrenheit outside – 9.4 celsius – and it’s going to be 80 F this afternoon or 26.6 Celsius. That seems like a crazy jump to me.
Is your weather like that or is it more consistent?

Call of the morning
Songbirds filling up the trees
Singing at sunrise

No video but this is the way it sounds this morning. Love springtime.

Tried to capture the moon and birds singing this morning.

Deadly Dolls
Deadly Dolls #haiku #supernatural #horrorshorts #spooky
New short and Haiku on the Disembodied Screams Channel.
Plastic arms reaching
Dolls voices screaming out loud
Vacant eyes staring
And I wrote this Haiku one night laying in bed listening to the rain. Don’t hate the rain, kind of enjoy a casual rainy day, but the Haiku has a nice ring to it.
A total washout
Rain, like a movie villain
Destroying the day

Pollen invasion
Everywhere yellow dust
Choking out the day
