 Teapot shakes

In sunlit hands

Of the morning

Look up from black lace

Unmasking the moon 🌙 🍂

Zen Showcase Spring 2025

 🍂Walking in the green 

On slippery rocks 

Philosophy 🍂

::

🍂I fell down 

And cracked my heart 

Paper fraying 🍂

::

🍂Black and white photos 

Light that slices

Obsidian dark 🍂

::

🍂Impromptu 

Pianist in the park 

Plays “Imagine “🍂

::

🍂A bed

Of orange tulips 

Drunk in sunlight🍂

::

🍂Bluebells

Understated 

Grace🍂

Olive Grove

 Haiku by Sarah Mahina Calvello

🍂The sweet surrender

Of an olive grove harvest

Hot sun ripening🍂

Farce

 Haiku by Sarah Mahina Calvello

🍂Sit with me again

The farce begins all over

Buildings scrape the sky🍂
