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.
