Haiku by Carl Scharwath

lonely ocean wave

long travel completed
in a sandpipers retreat

fresh virgin snow

falling pine cone
whispers in descent

silent first snow

hides summer lawn furniture
in stillness

dawn trees awaken

fabrics of fog adorn
outstretched branches

orange crescent moon

holds memories of the night
in her silver cup
