Saturday with the Muse


poetry is a window
to my heart;
words like
breath to me


the one true thing
you can know is
that a lifetime
is but a moment
in time sweetened
by love


beautiful bird song
sweetens the dusk
the quiet murmur of
leaves rustling
wind chimes softly
echoing

Essence #17


cat striped, sunlight streaming
a blissful sight, dreaming

Day 17’s Essence for Jane Dougherty’s Challenge. A bit late to the party but it took the late afternoon sun to capture the magic. Meet my fluffy grey, Sebastian. ❤️


Bug Vespers

interrupted, the
vespers of this pious bug
‘say a prayer for me’

For Haiku Horizons Challenge Prompt: Bug.


Essence #16

crystalline, cool stillness
blue serene, sweet greenness

~kat

Day 16 for Jane Dougherty’s daily Essence poem challenge. After yesterday’s bluster, today is a beautiful day. Too bad I’m stuck at my desk. At least the view is nice! 😊 Happy Friday!


Slim Chance Haiku

though chances are slim

if you never try
