Haibun



                                                              ALONE

Coffee in the café, her daily routine.  Many of the same faces.  Busy people.  Lonely people.  Happy. Sad.  She was one of many.  Who cared?  Did she?  Not enough.  Would she die like this, uncaring and uncared for?

                                                        full winter moon
                                                        in the wind
                                                       shadows touch

Haiku for autumn



tilting graves
composting histories
in fallen leaves

small town
swallowed by shadows
in early dusk

early morning
the silence broken
by a single honk

Simply Haiku
Presence, Never Ending Story
