A whole bunch of freeXpressions writing!

 Today's freeXpression prompt was Harvest



I first wrote some haikus:


oak leaf before shrooms

autumn colors of plant rest

no chlorophyll here


fungus umbrellas

shade from autumnal sun

and tasty too


if mushrooms dream

of being massive trees

let them dream


up springs the green new

supplant the older

generation


oak leaf oak leaf

from where did you blow in?

enjoying your visit?


this life nearly done

stalks fading to compost

plant cemetery


And then I thought I'd give a new form a try - a prose poem:


Rise up, rise up, tiny fungal wonders of nature. Persephone makes ready for her journey to her cold and drear house; this is your time to thrive. Gaia casts off her foliage coat and you feast.
