heat wave...still the flow of cold rain forgotten #DailyHaikuPrompt #HaikuFeels #haiku #poetry

View across a parched garden (US=backyard), light brown grass dominates the photo, with some green bushes in the foreground, and a some green on a damson plum tree with a weeping birch in the background at the left edge of the photo. Beyond the hedge which is a tarnished green, lie parched fields to the horizon.

in balance a splash of colour and the sky #vss365 #haiku #poetry

Close up on a bush of vibrant light indigo coloured flowers with yellow centres (I am sorry I don't know their name) against a brick wall of a house painted white. Behind the flowers, the white side and thatched roof of an old Frisian house, and beyond the house, a blue sky with a few light, white clouds.

Oh, yes, I asked her why. She...did not reply. Rude. #birds

Close up of a brown speckled hen with a bit of red atop her beak, yellow feet, crossing towards me across a black tarmac road.

iris blooms for so short a time transience #HaikuFeels #HaikuSaturday #haiku #poetry #Bloomscrolling

Bright blue sky with scattered white cummulous cloud. A dark purple iris opened in close up, centre, foreground, with several buds surrounding it which will open soon. Beyond the irises, a large patch of back garden, branches of a weeping birch in the top left. An apple tree, pear tree, and other shrubbery appear along the right hand side. Beyond the garden is a hedge line, beyond that green fields. A very sunny day.

waning moon hovers above cloud chicken, egg endless years of war I watch the sun...set. #DailyHaikuPrompt #TankaThursday #haiku #tanka #PoetryMonth

A clear and fading blue above a fading full moon in the centre, above pink-tinged lines of cloud, the trace of the treeline in the bottom right corner.

light returns at least it's a start weeping birch #HaikuFeels #haiku #poetry

Bright sunset light sears through the budding golden branches of a weeping birch tree. A field lies beyond, and a fading blue sky.

a long day the snail finds safety in stages #DailyHaikuPrompt #HaikuFeels #haiku #senryu #poetry

Close up of a light coloured snail stretching out of his black and orange shell to move into a hollowed out part of a tree just behind him. Another snail shell is visible in the bottom right, a bright green ivy leaf in the top right, slighlty nibbled.

Black and white pencil sketch of what looks like a bit of dock poking out of the water on the right side of the picture, and some drawn rings toward the centre. The haiku for the haiga appears top centre and reads:

a pond, disturbed
lone ripple gasps for breath
and is gone

a new war birdsong, jet-engines worm moon, turns #haiku #poetry #FullMoon

Bright full moon rising against a blue sky in the setting sunlight. A conifer is seen at the left of the photo, a bare apple tree spikes it's branches across the centre, a green field hinted at in the bottom right corner, a wood behind it.

between storms I find a dry path pale rainbow #vss365 #SenryuSunday #haiku #senryu #poetry

A mixed sky of dark and white cloud and blue sky. A full rainbow arches over a line of trees that spans the length of the photo, some hills in the background.

Woo hoo! I made a 'Techno-pessimists' list! 👊 For the record, I hate the TECH, ya spin-bot: the water-guzzling, electricity sapping, surveillance & theft tech. It is a good idea to check Clearsky.app now & then to see whose blocking you,what lists you're on, etc. #Blocking #Lists #Moderation

a quick look snowdrops arriving much too soon #HaikuFeels #HaikuSaturday #haiku #haiga #poetry #Bloomscrolling

A view from the ground, tilted down right, of a large clump of white snowdrops, fresh and drooping over as they do. The bottom of the trunk of a Bramley apple tree appears behind them, conifgers, blue sky, and large white cloud in the background.

sudden roar sanctuary, breached transport flight #HaikuSaturday #haiku #senryu #haiga #poetry

The branches of a large conifer frame the left, and a clump of bare branches claims the top right corner, beyond which is a further cluster of various trees, beyond which are a row of clouds in sunset pink, with a dimming blue sky above them. A military transport plane is visible in this blue sky, cutting through this peaceful scene.

scarred blue sky thread of an idea trailing off sun, in a slow burn spreads lingering light #TankaThursday #DailyHaikuPrompt #HaikuFeels #tanka #haiku #haiga #poetry

View across a field, tilted down left. The field itself is in shadow, a clear blue sky with several white jet streams appearing in it. The sun is an orange-yellow glow that spreads light across the top of the horizon line, a line of trees, also in shadow.

Mo Schoenfeld@moschoenfeld· Dec 31

staring, still moon in a clear sky this old year #DailyHaikuPrompt #HaikuFeels #haiku #poetry #WolfMoon

The waxing Wolf moon in the top right corner of the photo, shining brightly in a bright blue sky. Ther is a thing wisp of cloud coming in from the top left, but apart from that it is pure sky blue.

stray pea hen seeks out a warm spot icicles #DailyHaikuPrompt #haiku #poetry #birds #BirdsOfBluesky

Photo tilted down left. A white outside diir with glass panes, through which a pretty, white and grey pea hen stares at the camera inside the house. A stone path lies, behind her, some greenery and the wheel and back of a car in the top left corner.

chimney-soaked sunset mirth struggles for a foothold these slippery hopes #DailyHaikuPrompt #vss365 #haiku #senryu #poetry

View over a hedge line across a plowed field, the sky in fading blue, sunset light orange at the horizon where a single tree is silouetted under the setting sun. Rays shoot out from 4 different points on the sun, the longest of the rays reaching back over the hedge line to the foreground.

winter solstice morn sun wraps the fields in dawn glow for a hare’s breath, peace #DailyHaikuPrompt #haiku #poetry #Solstice #WinterSolstice

View across a green field, some twiggy hedge in the foreground, some trees in the left corner, a treeline and two shadowed cottages in the far background. The sun, a warm, soft white glow through a filter of thin, white cloud, pale blue sky beneath.

Mo Schoenfeld@moschoenfeld· Dec 20

I gifted my new job share partner homemade fudge for Christmas. She knitted me this for Christmas. She is the best. I have named her gift Flo, the Christmas mouse. Some people are just amazing. Hand made gifts like this are treasures ❤️💚

Little knitted, tan-coloured Christmas mouse with red coat and hood trimmed with fluffy white. She is also wearing a red dress with white fluff trim at the bottom. Her little tail peeks around her left foot. She sits on a wooden desk, a black computer keyboard and mouse (lol) partially visible in the background.

peacock, in winter in the English countryside all the pretty theft #DailyHaikuPrompt #haiku #senryu #bird #birds #BirdsOfBluesky

A male Peacock at the far left if the photo, seen from behind, his tail feathers just starting to appear, his satin green wings, his velvet blue head and neck. He is perched on a bit of equipment, a large log, and a wooden fence with a small tree peeking over it are in the background.

Mo Schoenfeld@moschoenfeld· Nov 29

I hope wherever he is, he is at peace at long last. We had a difficult relationship, but I loved him, he loved me, and he totally rocked Christmas. Cranking the Bing Crosby for you, Dad, as we decorate. I am feeling the loss of you acutely today 🕯️🕯️

An overcast sky with a peek of bright moon in the top left. A bit of branches in the lower right corner.

beyond hedge moon in a blue sky we endure #DailyHaikuPrompt #haiku #senryu #poetry

Photo of a hedge in the foreground, with some green and some yellow leaves. Beyond the hedge we can see a woodland a bit beyond, bronzed by autumn colour. Above this is a nearly clear blue sky, save for the nearly full moon peeking over the top of the woodland, just right of top centre.

quiet autumn morn colours change without a sound a silent rainbow I only hear my footsteps disturbing a peaceful path #TankaThursday #HaikuFeels #tanka #haiku #poetry #autumn #nature

An autumn scene: Large conifers mix with Japanese maples, with larger trees in the background, a blue sky, with a path winding through it.
