Infinite blackness
Stretching far beyond the stars
Into the unknown
+
Claustrophobia
Confined in a tight dark space
Buried under dirt

Haiku – The “Into the Night” Run
Dinner smells wafting
In the late September heat
Last gasp for summer
+
What’s up with this heat business right now? I thought almost 90 was a by-gone Summer thing. Here it is Mid-September and it feels like Summer. Fall starts Tuesday though, we will see how it goes after that. Good run tonight overall, and Thursday – the one I didn’t post about. I can’t wait for cooler days. How about you? Will you miss the Summer or can you not wait for Fall?

Haiku – A Taste of Fall 2
Orange color creeps
Consuming Summer’s green leaves
Autumn almost here
The First One:
Yellow and brown leaves
River Birch changing early
Signs of things to come

Haiku – Coffee in the Pot
Early morning blah
My body needs some caffeine
To get me moving
+
Hard day to get up on, but a good one. My son is officially 2 today. I just can’t believe how fast the time has gone. I just wanted to wish him a Happy Birthday!
Okay, now off to get a little coffee and get my stay at home dad day started. Who would like to kick back and play in the sand today? A beach sounds great about right now.

Haiku – Ghost Train
Cold moonlight drenched night
Machine specter chugging fast
Empty rails rattle

Haiku – Thoughts about Trains
Haunted by our past
Trains once rolled into these camps
Few came out alive
+
A steam engine roars
Click and clack of the steel wheels
Riding on the rails

Haiku – The Severed Hand
Crawling towards me
Dead rotten moldy fingers
Scratching up the floor
+
One of the best scenes in all of horror for severed hands. Watch and enjoy.

Haiku – The Here and Now
Morning has arrived
Can’t wake up, groggy and tired
A rough way to start
+
Sometimes a day at the beach is the only thing that will help. Too bad I don’t live near one. I can go there with this song though. I hope it takes you away as well.

Poem – At the Park
Ripples at the water line
Lake gently breaks on the shore
Brown sand at my feet
Soft warm Earthly floor

Haiku – The “Out with the Crickets” Run
Sunlight dropping quick
Daytime and nighttime converge
Sky explodes in red
+
Really starting to feel like fall and look like fall as well – getting dark a lot earlier these days. Tonight, I was heading back through the park and crickets were jumping out of my way. That’s where the title came from in case you were wondering. Okay, who’s ready for fall? I know I am.

3 Haiku
Misty drizzly day
Grey and fog-like atmosphere
Day starts out with gloom
+
Jimmy Buffett plays
Like a wave, the music flows
A soft gentle ease
+
Off to music class
My son and I together
Happy bonding time

Haiku – Stranded in the Rain
Long black empty road
Out of gas, alone, tired, cold
Branch snaps in the dark

Haiku – The “Feeling Like A Kid Again” Run
Splashing through showers
Cloud burst high up above me
Rain and sweat mingle
+
There is nothing more fun than running in the rain. About the only draw back I have to it, is that my clothes get heavy so I end up carrying extra weight. I was also watching for lightning and listening for thunder, but lucky for me I didn’t see or hear any. Good one tonight. How about you? Do you love running in the rain or walking in it or just being out in it (when there’s no major thunderstorm that is)?
