Poetry: Summer Haiku & Mid July Greens
Poet and artist Delia Bell (Submitted photo)
Lanesboro Haiku
In the morning haze
Geese glide over this hamlet
With dreams of water
In the noon sunshine
Eagles soar along the bluffs
With hopes of fishing
In the evening air
Pigeons coo from high ledges
With wishes for rest
The Many Greens of Mid July
The many greens of mid July
Speak volumes to my heart
The perfect peak of the sun beams down
A spotlight for their message to shine
The breeze moves them closer to my soul
With each swift stirring of air
They dance for all of mankind to witness
The many greens of mid July
