A Poem a Day (323): Morning crisp & 5 more haiku

 

1

Morning crisp, white light,

chill air, blankets wrapt, quiver

of pale goose-bumped skin.

 

 

2

White lace surfs the sky.

A bride for the waiting moon,

suited in black tie.

 

 

3

Dark pools, mossy stench.

Green legs splayed, tongue curled, hops forth

his shiny humped hide. 

 

 

4

Curvacious, waxen,

rubber ovals slice open,

ooooooze citrus escape.

 

 

5

Rounded symmetries,

puckered rind clenches flesh taut,

pressurised to burst.

 

 

6

A missing necklace,

remnant of past love’s vision,

Wood lizard creeping.
