Karen O'Leary, US
 

 

 

 

Cinquain

 

Seasoned

 

Yellow
and red leaves dance
in autumn’s cool crisp air
as I stroll past royal purple
asters.


Twilight
of life beckons
and I no longer rush
yet enjoy watching red squirrels
scamper.

 

 

Lanterne

 

Far From the Truth

 

gray
billows
from smokestacks—
politicians
spew

 

 

Tetracyts

 

Shuffleboard

 

cracked
concrete—
change shifting
with the seasons
that calls for continuous adjustments
