Neo-Haiku... season's change

sunburned and stonebruised
apples on the lawn
cool dappled shade


blue-eyed darner
gold sunlight stitches
green tomato leaves


black-kitty inside
not through back door
through front window


caterpillar chrysalis
passion vine inside for autumn
winter butterfly wings


starlings in the cedar
calls like running water
in this drought

***

woke to morning thunder
rain rattling the window
welcome, autumn
