Wrapped up in this warmth
created; autumn leapfrogs
summer’s true decline
Shadow puppets sway
Children’s faces pressed against
Store windows at night
Lovers’ fingers can’t
touch; no passion can be found
here between their graves
Supernatural
foe barred; circle symbols hold
demon world in thrall

Wow brilliant flashes of light!!! Whoa!!! I love this one, it’s nice to see each haiku separated. Very pleasing to my eye.
Thank you so much!!
I really like these!
Always had a strange place in my heart for spouses’ graves … so close, but so far … very strange. But such is life.
Great work!
Thank you – yes it is a haunting (no pun intended) concept – lovers/spuses etc so close and so far in their graves…..
