poetry – Laura Roettiger Books

Haiku Saturday 12/6/25

once adorned with leaves green, turned red, yellow, then gone trees play hide and seek

twinkles through branches reflections off water play shadows welcome us

bumblebee at work creating masterpieces an artist’s instinct

a visual treat purple iris siren song calls me, come closer

like modernist art depicting the current mess ~ of our government.

bursting with beauty Damask roses invite all to linger and look

peony update washed away after the rain faded beauty queen

delicate while bold Scarlet Trumpet plays beside showy garden stars

yarrow blushes red yellow ice plants give support my garden: joy found!

glowing golden hour sunset works magic drawing a flight of fancy
