Day rears up before me, too steep, too bleak, a mountain I cannot climb. #DailyHaikuPrompt Mountain (I have to go to a funeral today 😢)

Still shoreline rustles where lochside reeds have grown tall, otter hunts unseen. #DailyHaikuPrompt Grown

Wind sweeps bare clifftops where lichen has grown on stone, cold ponies huddle. #DailyHaikuPrompt Grown #Pembrokeshire

Cloud fills the valley, red kites drop in declining circles, sky meets ground. #DailyHaikuPrompt Decline

Gentle fenland dusk, swan glides through the slow decline of the golden haze. #DailyHaikuPrompt Decline #Fens

New moon on reed beds, bittern booms through the twilight, broad reflects the stars. #DailyHaikuPrompt New moon #NorfolkBroads

Withered leaves circle in the air, caught by the breeze, autumn’s confetti. #DailyHaikuPrompt Withered

Day withers away to reveal bright hunter’s moon, stars cloak the night sky. #DailyHaikuPrompt Withered

Clifftop grass sways, choughs wheel above the sea spray, waves carve ancient rock. #DailyHaikuPrompt Grass

Hardy clifftop grass hides the mouse, kestrel hovers, sea sighs far below. #DailyHaikuPrompt Grass

Crisp air on the heath red fox watches from the gorse quick rabbits scatter. #DailyHaikuPrompt Crisp

Mist wisps and curls as sunrise spills across the fields, long grass crisp with frost. #DailyHaikuPrompt Crisp

Dancing in and out of the kelp on the tide line, otter cubs tumble. #DailyHaikuPrompt Seaweed

Rotate the apple by its poles, like a globe, crunch into its oceans. #DailyHaikuPrompt Apple

I want to screech like the pheasant, feral, raw, wild, scream up at the sky. #DailyHaikuPrompt Pheasant

Spring orchard hums, a thousand insects buzzing with electricity. #DailyHaikuPrompt Apples

Beside me sun casts shadows of twined leaves and stems, a patio mosaic. #DailyHaikuPrompt Stem

Red head proudly raised, eyes bright, tail feathers flowing, he struts the birdwalk. #DailyHaikuPrompt Pheasant

Explosion of noise as I open the back door, pheasant feathers fly. #DailyHaikuPrompt Pheasant

Sea gulls flock to the ploughed field, screeching, squabbling, plunder its riches. #DailyHaikuPrompt Field

Fox on the brow of the field, standing proud, haloed in the evening sun. #DailyHaikuPrompt Field

Straw on the floor, band on the stage, stamp to the beat, feel the heat, let go. #DailyHaikuPrompt Straw

From the straw bale, the rat meets my eye, whiskers twitch, tail flicks, bold as brass. #DailyHaikuPrompt Straw

Mist lifts as I reach the shore, the sea breeze blows in and my mind flies free. #DailyHaikuPrompt Misty

Seals call from the rocks like spirits on the north wind, mournful, ever lost. #DailyHaikuPrompt Ghost

Wisps of sea fog float in on the tide, nebulous ghosts haunting the shore. #DailyHaikuPrompt Ghost

Brisk and businesslike, the wind sweeps through, blows sad thoughts aside, renews hope. #DailyHaikuPrompt Fresh wind

Fresh breeze chases cloud shadows across the seascape, patchwork in motion. #DailyHaikuPrompt Fresh wind

Late frost sprinkles the fields with silver, which dawn melts in a heartbeat. #DailyHaikuPrompt Late frost

Like flour from a sieve, the pollen dusts the sunlit path, haze of yellow. #DailyHaikuPrompt Flour

White sails now broken, millstones just an echo, but flour still dusts the floor. #DailyHaikuPrompt Flour

In the fog I hear muffled wave breaks on the shore, spray merging with mist. #DailyHaikuPrompt Beach

I find the yellow leaf a year later, in your book, brittle as loss. #DailyHaikuPrompt Yellow leaves

Back home, sun-kissed and glowing, hitchhiking grains of sand seep from my clothes. #DailyHaikuPrompt Grain

Through the pink dusk I stare into the universe, where distant stars shine. #DailyHaikuPrompt Pink

Sundrenched spine, faded to pink, belies the book’s vibrant red cover. #DailyHaikuPrompt Pink

High tide brings me gifts: driftwood and rope, fresh air and hope, a beach renewed. #DailyHaikuPrompt High tide

Waves crescendo as high tide sweeps up the beach, a symphony of sound. #DailyHaikuPrompt High tide

Carefully balanced tower of stones falls as tide sweeps in. Nothing lasts. #DailyHaikuPrompt High tide

Soft laughter as the rippling stream rushes over rocks, burbling with mirth. #DailyHaikuPrompt Laughter

From the garden fence magpies mock me, cruel laughter spills from their sharp beaks. #DailyHaikuPrompt Laughter

Cruising the eaves of the wood, dusk catches owl’s wings, haunting the shadows. #DailyHaikuPrompt Eaves

Like magic, swallows return a thousand miles to our eaves, route perfect. #DailyHaikuPrompt Eaves

Curlew calls across clouds reflected on wet sand, beach and sky seem one. #DailyHaikuPrompt Low tide

At low tide the beach grows, rippled sand stretches. I twirl, the space all mine. #DailyHaikuPrompt Low tide

Cobweb invasion, airborne flotilla of strands floating across fields. #DailyHaikuPrompt Strand

Leaf shadows dapple the pond, dragonfly floats through elfin pools of light. #DailyHaikuPrompt Dapple

My footsteps echo round dark corners of the cave, an unseen army. #DailyHaikuPrompt Footsteps

I rock him but still he cries, newborn angst, alone, helpless in the dark. #DailyHaikuPrompt Rock

Raven’s cry echoes off rock walls cradling the lake, cleaves the crystal air. #DailyHaikuPrompt Rock
