rouse in spring’s soft breeze

Solitude and sand
mix with salty ocean breeze –
Winter dreams of spring
– Written for Carpe Diem Haiku Kai’s Crossroads haiku. The object is to fuse two haiku together to form a new creation. The two original poems and explanation are here.
Seasons come and go
Downpours of rain, then ice and snow
Sunshiney days and a cool evening breeze
Budding flowers and leaves falling from trees
Time passes on while nature puts on a show

When Blood Ceases to Flow
Fly away my angel.
Be forever young.
My longing will linger into eternity,
But you are at peace.
Your laugh lives always on the warm breeze,
But I am embraced by the night,
A ghost with no heartbeat,
A prisoner without life,
Yet I cannot die.

Upon the breeze,
The scent of rain, refreshing, new.
Upon the breeze,
Sounds of lost laughter stir the trees.
I just notice something else too.
Summer storm brings the scent of you,
Upon the breeze.

Scorching sun melts to
Fall breezes and back again
No rhyme or reason

Cool breeze sign of fall
Sweltering afternoon heat
Nature changed her mind
