The Octopus and the Diver

 

She hid in the depths of the sea, only emerging from her den of shells after he visited her many times, proving his trustworthiness. Dropping camouflage for her natural red, she aimed one eye at his two. Looking deep into his single heart, she revealed a taste of her three.

Inside Out- Haiku Triplet

 

Moss, darkness, cold, cling to

Bones of winter trees

A picture through a window

 

Sprinkles of rain, pelts of hail

Rivers pound boulders

Autos hum in the background

 

Mist obscures the distant peaks

Humus mutes footfalls

Nature from the inside out
