Silhouettes
moonlit night
I hear your footsteps
behind my window
but all I see
is your silhouette
merging into another

Done for Carpe Diem
Mixing up the action so the reader does not know if nature is doing the action or if a human is doing it.
Shadows
full moon
dispelling the shadows cast
by the old lantern

Done for A Prompt Each Day. Inspired by the photo below:
Shadows
ghosts
flickering lantern
reveals their shadow
2
moonless night
grandma dispelling shadows
with her flickering lantern
3
I write your name with soot
on the mud wall
but it is blown away
by that breath of wind
from the wicker of the lantern
and with it you are gone
4
flickering soot
wiping my memory
of you

Haiku Heights prompt. Age
Age
twilight creeps in
shadows gather their sheaves
glowing wrinkles
