Dawn Calls Upon Me (Haiku)

Dawn calls upon me
Her robes, red, orange, blue–calming
Life’s resurrection

Basking in the southwest sun

Jewels garnish heavens cloak

Within every living thing

Grand Canyon Winter

Grand Canyon winter

Buttes caped in the whitest robes

Pure and unspoiled

A picture perfect postcard

Painted by the Master’s hand

≈ 

A beautiful sight

Burnished under an endless sky

Her majesty unchallenged

She harbors life in this cold

Though her shores appear barren

≈ 

Deer, eagle, rabbit

All survive her harsh winter

As done for eons

Wondrous in their fortitude

Man has yet to ruin them

 ≈

Protected from harm

One of the seven wonders

She most surely is

May this always be so

For generations to come

Strokes, Blue, Red, Orange (Haiku)

Strokes, blue, red, orange
Drawn in glorious pastels
Brilliant morning sky

Desert Riverbeds (Haiku)

Desert riverbeds
Parched and cracked from summer’s heat
Alive with rain’s breath

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

The Greatest Of Loves (Haiku)

The greatest of loves
Need no words to so express
Written in the stars

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Leaf Saunters Downward (Haiku)

Leaf saunters downward

Unable to cling to life

Winter has conquered

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~

Huddled From The Cold (Haiku)

Huddled from the cold

Protection from frigid winds

Tender leaves curl

 

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
