Mt. Rental Haiku
Mt. Rental Haiku …

Weathered old wood bench
with painted rocks in a line
hold firm to our ground
A wind blown playhouse
fallen into shred of roof
time stacked in a pile
Moved to these mountains
where the weather is raw
up in swaying pine
sits Tonka dump truck
still and silent in the dirt
under shade from sage
these signs of living
quiet in the harsh and wild
trails to the beyond
sheds by the snow line
packed to rafter with box
a footfall to place
We wait for birth
holding onto sturdy land
a place where brush grows

Great job, Jaime. I always loved the PNW. You painted it lovely and clear. Thank you.
Thank you William. I have spend most of my life in Nevada and love the High Desert.
Loved this Jamie and I am so glad that I joined you all on here.
Eddy, it is so good to hear from you thank you for stopping by. I am excited that you are here too!
Few words that paint such an incredible landscape – wonderful read!
I love the way this puts us right there in the surrounding, wild countryside, along with its past life shown with such well-chosen words, just enough to paint a clear picture of past and present. Well done Jamie!
