Just Gone

Written for Haiku Fridays with J-Dub.

Footprints end at the wave ….
no goodbye, just salt air
and a fading trail

  1. I was looking for to your ‘footprint’ Haiku, and you did not disappoint … along with a fabulous soundtrack my friend … an interesting footprint poem from Sept 2023
    Watermarks
    (a Pyramid Poem)

    rivers flow
    tides come and go
    footprints in the sand
    slip away with the undertow
    dreams fade in a cloud of mist and snow
    hollow watermarks drift over the poet’s shadow
