Title: a dozen haiku
Rating: Gen
Length: 150
Notes: haiku x 12 (one for each of the stories in Adventures)


1. March. Blows in proud King.
Blows out woman. The Woman.
Storm turned farewell breeze.

2. league of autumn hues
fiery red drawn (to, by) gold
(falls, is run) to ground

3. Love’s spring hides winter’s
avarice. The seasons of
Mary Sutherland.

4. June’s glass, unlike past,
twenty-nine, holding steady
in Boscombe Valley.

5. Equinoctial gale
gives the innocent, guilty
the September pip.

6. Orange blossom brides
left for season-less den,
a twisted June Boone.

7. Holly and Mercy,
Yuletide spirits are best served
when your goose is cooked.

8.  home-grown wickedness
exotic menagerie
fear’s no April fool

9. midsummer garden
beds of bloomin’ trick-me-lots
a phantom green thumb

10. bleak autumnal eve
relics, noble and less so,
throw their weight about

11. bright February
sun on snow dazzles like gems
blinds like gold-set truth

12. flight from yellow fog
a certain Copper horror
a nip in the air
