Old Chairs

the castoffs mumble whispers

aching – loyal. flawed.

lessons in looking for love

{i took this picture last summer in Mount Victory, Ohio.

i desperately needed a creative challenge so i used it to inspire a haiku.}

Hints

naked garden rests

twisted hinges, creaking winds

hints of hidden snow

Sunday Scribblings - Tradition

Black or brown – my grandfather's dress socks
Tacked to a white wooden mantle
Sagging with oranges, chocolates and apples

Sunday Scribblings - Stranger

alone in the rear pew –
watching as silent as breath
longing to be enfolded

Sunday Scribblings - Change

autumn rain --

one orange leaf dancing

a melancholy farewell
