today in the forest (Haikus)
looking at the sky
waiting for leaves to drop
then it just hit me
warm campfire staring
fairies dance a celtic jig
sirens that sizzle
the campfire smokes
despite doctors health warnings
smoke signals death soon
the Celtic roundhouse
inside tranquility wins
atmospheric peace
wisely the owl hoots
its head gracefully turns
panoramic views
I just met a Troll
he gave me five magic beans
but sadly no toast
brash and twig hut roofs
but still putting Trump to shame
not a bad hair day
trees stand straight stock still
smart like uniformed soldiers
in green moss jackets
forest has power
ancient ghosts lay on healing
I am replenished

Ahh, you utterly stole my heart with this one. You create such peace and beauty in this piece. I can feel the trees and the campfire smoke embracing me as I read. So very beautiful! Campfire hugs for you! :)

David, the forest brings so much comfort to a few wonderful ladies I know and it has been forever since I have walked among the trees and moss...between you and them I am brought there and become swept away with your words...thank you for that!
Hugs to you!

I'm a sucker for haiku so I was drawn to this the moment I saw it. Nice imagery, alliteration, and humor. Nicely done poet.
