Memories of him
Drift like summer days through screen
Doors – warm, distant, dim

Steaming mug of tea
Burns against my palms, like hot
Pavement on bare feet

Limited. Precise.
Each sound counts. Count each sound. No
space to waste your words.

engraved on your palms
carved deep into flesh that bled
me, a scar you chose

#5
October trees like
brushes dipped in reds and gold
Stand on end, painting

#3, 4 and 5 of 5 Haikus (or poems) for the Weekly Writing Challenge: Haiku Catchoo!

Ice blue like winter
skies, his eyes glisten, cutting
me like diamonds glass
