haiku – Page 24 – Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Afternoon Walk

the joys of sunlight
graceful clouds within blueness 
seagulls cry calming

an afternoon pause
in sunlight along the shore
the joy of flowers

reddening leaves
boldly green just yesterday 
crisp, cold air arrives

yet another walk
underneath the autumn clouds
soon birds quiet

this autumnal night
with silence under the stars
sleep's call beckons

sunlight and the clouds
graceful movement through the sky
autumnal graces

moving through the day
sunlight flows upon my life 
embracing its grace

sunlight has faded
roses bloom in the darkness 
remnants of summer

summer visages 
with autumn approaching 
soon the seasons change

gazing to the west
sunlight dives into the sea
awaiting moon's rise
