elly from earth -- Elly Nobbs

oh life-
the warmth of the sun

fog on the low field
flowers of the sheep’s slow breath
becoming blackthorn

creeping into forbidden
spaces
the evening fog

dropping an expensive toy
the dog picks up
a stick

a heron’s wing

This makes me happy 💙🙂

Your bird disguise was more dragon, umbrella skin and bones for wings. Toothy beak. Mine mostly ideas of flight, feathered with scribbled pages.

But the crows let us join their storytelling. You heard strange tales of shiny treasures beyond reach. I heard secrets of the sky.

threadbare hazel —
a few catkins left
hanging on

Why don’t I do this,
I get lost in a book,
Distracted by daydreams,
Oh time to cook!
Ideas I’ve plenty,
Can’t settle on any,
I start but don’t finish,
There’s really too many,
I look out the window,
Must make a list,
Distracted by squirrels,
Yes you get the gist.

night snow falls
like the fragrance of stars
glistening at dawn

change wall posters
fold up the one with snow
weather's uncertain

Ice blocks and a thin dark strip of water and more ice.

The ocean is still keeping her songs to herself. ❄️✨

hammer blow—
across the valley
a dog answers

sitting in traffic—
through the sunroof
underbellies of geese

finding nothing but geese

A metal bird.

Looking up from under the canopy of a giant tree fern in El Yunque National rainforest in Puerto Rico. The fern fronds are bright green, and there is a black dotted pattern that goes around their edges, like tiny teeth

🌿

somehow
I get to be
part of the pattern

#haiku #senryu #rainforest

sliding into dusk
each flower a little moon
bees in the prunus

the way she wears
the morning light
spring lilies

#DailyHaikuPrompt

the distant mountain
holding a single cloud
desert lands

geese return
as they always do
no papers

March
the wind takes
a dog’s bark

Exciting times!

Ice on a branch dips into fast moving water.

Streams are starting to giggle. ✨
