beach poems

We returned home on Tuesday from a wonderful two-week holiday that we spent exploring Salt Spring and Vancouver Islands. What fun it was to hike beach trails, find our way to an artisan bakery and a goat cheese factory, attend the Saturday market, and generally make friends with some beautiful spots on our B.C. coastline.

The photos that are the background to today’s poems were taken on the Booth Bay beach, at the west end of Baker Road on Salt Spring. We happened to hit it at low tide!

Autumn Haiga

Summer’s memoirs
written on fallen leaves
colourful stories

Scarecrows riding high
another season’s work done
pose and party time!

Currant prunings
last garden harvest
preserves for the eyes.

Plain green juniper
primping for autumn
with red berry baubles

These are Saturday’s poems for my poem-a-day November. The prompts for them were a few photos I have taken recently.
