Two Found Poems


My wife was cleaning out some old papers in her closet. Among those papers she found a notepad with a couple of haiku I'd written at some point.

fallen leaves
on elderly neighbor's lawn -
an estate sale sign

Indian summer -
neighbors nod as they rush through
season's last mowing

I don't know if I scribbled them then just forgot about them, or if I thought they were not that good and planned to come back to them later, but they got swept up with other papers.

Whatever the case, here they are.

Pax et bonum
