Crackling conkers
Playground games for boys
Roasting optional
Spitting damp willow stem
Shrivels fur like rabbit tails
Green smoke
Heady smoke
Embraces fears of winter
Soothes summer grief

soothes summer grief... love that!
ReplyDeleteNice series of haiku Emma. I am glad to see you here again. I thought already that it had to do with our Zodiac-theme why you were 'away'. I hope to see you again soon after our Zodiac-days. We have still four (4) days to go in that Zodiac-theme and there after we start with other prompts. I hope to see you than again here on Carpe Diem.
ReplyDeleteThank you Emma for sharing your haiku with us here.
I can feel the brisk autumn day and smell the wood smoke!

Is there any game that soothes the grief of children at summer's end?

We all need something to soothe our summer grief. Some of us never find it...

my mind sings, Chestnuts roasting on an open fire...Since it's only April, and barely spring here, I, personally don't want to smell autumn yet!
