Spring Storm (A Triptych Haiku)

/ Michael Aaron Casares / Leave a comment

Thickened oxygen
Misty haze upon the ground
Grass sweat pungent green

Sudden chilling wind
Gray somber overcast rain
Hail, violent quick

Verdant paradise
Crisp first flower butterfly
Long blade beauty sheen

Old Glory (A Triptych Haiku)

/ Michael Aaron Casares / Leave a comment

Deep frost the raining
Shadows hide beneath the pelt
Scorned frostbitten earth

Steadfast, wind and breeze
Revelation of blue skies
Perennial bloom

Red horizon glow
Majestic mountains crimson
Stoic, resolve, strong

Amber tufts cotton
Carnation hearth majestic
Fired light distant gold

Mountain Laurel (Triptych Haiku)

/ Michael Aaron Casares / Leave a comment

Lavender outside
step in the pink and purple;
sweet luscious all day.

The sweet inhaling,
fresh and sweet, the sky is ripe.
Lucid trees sublime.

In distant memory,
verdant foliage under bloom,
awaken senses.
