Winter stark and bleak
A specter in the springtime

Browsing phone pictures
Memories of winter days
Thankful now for spring
A cool ghostly kiss
Cemetery lips on skin
Pressed to his forehead
Funny thing. This Haiku was inspired by something tickling my nose as I went to bed last night. I assume it was a piece of string or the bed sheet – but, who knows?
Dull tomato red
Piercing the new morning sky
Storm about to break
When I got out of bed this morning the sky looked amazing and it looked like it was about to burst with the most violent storm I had ever seen. Thankfully it didn’t, but it did inspire this Haiku.
Rain fills the morning
Grey clouds permeate the sky
Dark, bleak, and gloomy
Thunderstorms racing
Chasing away the day’s heat
Temporary chill
Walking in the sun
Nature’s warm blessings abound
Cascading brightly
Shocking cold morning
Winter returns with a blast
Sudden arctic chill
Cold overcast day
Rain falling from a bleak sky
Drowning out the sun
A cool wind blowing
Heat temporarily stalled
Fall has now returned
Bright warming sunshine
Winter’s snowy covered ground
Basking in its rays
Overcast and grey
Cold air licks at the soft clouds
Pushing warmth away
Let’s jump into fall
Tired of the sweltering heat
August is too hot

Mountain morning fog
Sparkling crystal white droplets
Covering the view
Weird winter weather
Cold chills replaced by warm air
In a single night

This has to be one of the stranger weather events in my life. Yesterday morning I was waking up to the upper twenties with sleet and freezing rain. This morning, I am waking up to 54 degrees and the possibility of a thunderstorm. Never seen anything like it. How about you? Do you have a strange weather story?
Sun and clouds at war
Neither willing to concede
Muggy air today
Snowy frozen land
Blanket of white on the ground
Winter’s bitter cold

We finally got a decent amount of snow down here, which is the only part of winter I like. We’ve had our chances, but it always seems to miss us. I know people up North are probably sick of it by now, but if it has to be this cold, why not let it snow? Anybody agree with that statement?
Flip Flops in the rain
Feeling so much pain
The warm sandy beach
So far from their reach
On this long gloomy day
So full of dark and grey
Salt and pepper clouds
The sun’s rays refuse to shine
The day starts out grey
