love torn asunder
serrated edges draw blood
but the heart beats on
striking like a billy club
redemption in copper red
Thanks to RDP and Esther for great prompts- SERRATED AND CLUB.

tanka tuesday-Bashō
the light of a star
as our journey’s companion
may shine like a sun
wall of sound
the echo of time
journey’s end
Today, our Tanka Tuesday prompt is to write haiku in the style of Bashō. I’m not sure if I succeeded but I enjoyed the challenge. Thanks to Selma for hosting Tanka Tuesday.
falling
I love the Fall. I love jackets and scarves and boots and hot chocolate and blustery days. But I also love the feel of Fall. I love knowing that the changing colors and the bare tree branches aren’t just about the end of summer. Falling leaves are a vital part of the cycle of life. I also love the crackle under our feet when I’m walking hand and hand with my guy. We’ve had a lot of Autumn walks in our many years together and Autumn really does bring renewed love.
But mostly, I love the BOOTS!

memories unwind
of soft scarves and falling leaves
autumn’s love renewed
thanks for a great inspiration.

she said but he said-Flashback Friday
For Fandango’s Flashback Friday, I reached back to the days when we still thought that maybe there might be lasting consequences for the lies.

wilting efforts and fresh lies
laid bare to the world
