A sign of fall arriving
Winter nipping soon

Rotten zombies with old flesh
Crawl from earthen graves

As a total out of the blue side bar, I have to share this one today. My 3-year-old son said he liked the song “Margaritaville” today without me prompting him first. A lot of times if he acts like he likes a song or hums to it or something like that (mostly kid’s songs), I will ask if he likes it. He will say something about it, but today out of the blue he just said he liked “Margaritaville” with no prompting first. He’s been listening to Buffett and “Margaritaville” since he was at least 3 months old, maybe earlier than that. Kind of nice to know that I might just be raising another Parrothead. He loves the salt, salt, salt part of this song. Enjoy.
First tease of real fall
A taste of cool morning air
Pushes back the heat

Sun moves into fall
Different angles of light
Slanting through the trees
Coffee and caffeine
Fill me up before I start
My stay at home day

A red widow’s walk
Cross and photo in her hand
She waits for his ship

Adrift on the sea
Tide guiding the small brown boat
Going where it leads

Eternal life waits
Just beyond our Earthly grasp
If we just believe

Funny thing, the church sermon on Sunday was all about hope. I came home and saw the word prompt on Prompt Each Day was the same word. Strange how that works out sometimes.
Sunshine and grey clouds
Battle upon the blue sky
Light, dark, light, dark, light . . .
Wind rattles the trees
Shakes the limbs and thick green leaves
Blowing strong today
A wet damp lingers
Day washed out in cold grey fog
London like morning
In a field you hang
Upon this wood post you wait
For the night’s darkness

Palm trees line the shore
Warm air and sand fill your soul

I was watching an Island Hunter’s show on HGTV and they went to Fiji. Such a beautiful place that it inspired this Haiku. I’ve never been, but if you have I would love to hear your thoughts on what it was like to visit there.
