Dappled

I know I am close
To the essence of things when
I let the light be

her rump was dappled
grey spots on a white blanket
soft grizzled muzzle

This calico cat
#dapple coat of bright colours
stares out to the yard

brush a #strand of hair
until it is soft and smooth
my daughter's wedding

dappled light...
a strand of apple trees
perfume the breeze

#DailyHaikuPrompt #Dapple

Twilight’s last gleaming
Casting sun dappled shadows
Through fiery red leaves

When the sun's out strong, I usually look for shade, and when there's solid dark shade for too long I venture out into the sun, but dapple? I can sit in a good dapple all day long.

bound

the constant ebb and flow
of the tide
in the absence of hurricanes
or other natural disasters
still wears deep on the soul

leaving a dappled stain
etchings of frailty
and imperfections
as aching reminders
of seasons passed

unwilling to leave
of their own accord
impervious to
concealer and whitewash
the mosaic of a life lived

souls set apart
a unique brokenness
and yet inextricably
bound together
in being broken

Thanks to @tanweerdar for providing today’s prompt #dapple

@tanweerdar

He does this every Friday,
Plays the piano for the dying
Children in a house of colours,
Where grief dapples every moment
With shadows in the corridors
Outside the room where his music
Makes them smile for a few sacred
Heartbeats. And every Friday,
At the end of the afternoon,
He takes his hat and coat,
Walks away down the drive
To his empty house where he
Wonders how many of the
Faces will smile at him
Next week.
