    one last glass before bedtime

    book bag

    erased older sister's name
    a bookbag hangs
    in kindergarten class

    September, seasons
    leaves changing color

    some keep the color of youth
    falling too fast
    rainsoaked backyard

    Poetry

    her words fall like rain
    soaking the skin you are in
    live in her embrace
    Forget your perfect offering, there is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in. - Leonard Cohen

    Very nice, BE!

    September, heavens
    clouds

    wash a day in grey
    canvas for a fallen leaf


    If we get up to 300 poems this year on this thread, I'll send in another one of those Haiku presents to the PJ fanclub. You think we can do it? No pressure, since there was such a lapse in time. It would be fun though, you think?

    Autumn's Slumber

    leaves float on the breeze
    like rainbows lost in the sun's light
    time to go to sleep

    the open book
    creased where creases should be

    September, The Earth

    Sea She

    she floats on the waves
    she lets herself go too far
    now she is of thee

    Sand Man

    pebbles perfection
    pushed and part pulled passed paisley
    plush purpled parades

    Horseback Ride

    the feel of muscle
    rippling underneath me
    I hug my stallion

    his stride just right

    cold

    The blankets discarded, and the wood floor managed quickly
    empty refrigerator

    Nice, Ms. H!

    September, season & moods

    cold

    the air holds silence
    morning's breath twirls in between
    an icicle forms

    This isn't about season, just came to me while I was reading;

    the smell of an old book
    -lost thoughts floating
    towards you

    This one could be related;

    a small november leaf
    fighting with wind to stay
    a part of an oak tree
    En mi vida,
    el oscuro me mantiene
    cuando yo te vi
    en la lluvia me prometiste tu sangre

    Estrella de la mañana
    Samael te persigo a ti
    y si me quedo sin alas
    ademas me muero por ti

    I can sense the AHA! feeling in them, so I would say that they are haiku.

    sunshine on the porch
    shadows of the gate
    incarcerates it
