Growing

 -------Growing-------

We all grow with Love.

Each to bear 

flowers and fruit.

Seeds awaiting light.

-------

In Love

 -------In Love-------

Our joy 

and sorrow

Are flowers 

of the same earth.

All have roots 

in Love.

-------

Hold Me Autumn

 -------Hold Me Autumn-------

Hold me 

Autumn 

in

The light 

of your becoming.

Let us 

both 

turn gold.

-------

Everywhere There's Laughter

 -------Everywhere There's Laughter-------

Fruit fall 

and forest chatter

The acorns 

and the geese

High above, 

within, below

Everywhere 

there's laughter

The light will gather

and carry on

As it does 

within a seed.

Joy Haiku

 -------Joy Haiku-------

Memory, 

a leaf

Falling

I run 

to catch it.

The child 

in me smiles.

-------

Seasons Haiku

 -------Seasons Haiku-------

Neither cage 

nor chains

Can stop the revolution.

Autumn 

taking form.

-------

Goldenrod

 -------Goldenrod-------

Leaves turn 

their inner color

As the light begins 

to change.

Like them 

I trust the spirit

That moves us 

each and all

With the earth 

and to the rhythm

Of goldenrod

and Fall
