before the shadows close in
and birdsong is past

    There are several ways one can interpret this, provided of course it is a metaphor not just a fancy way of saying goodnight!

    I agree with Laura…a perfect haiku with a post card image of the Sonoran Desert Summer Sky.

    A disturbing haiku…prophetic, I fear. And a beautiful view of our desert.

    This is so beautiful. And I am so glad it is not YOUR farewell for when I saw the title I thought, “How will i manage without her?”

    In the desert the colors looks always brighter. Nice photo with accompanying text.

    This is beautiful but you are going nowhere are you? The beauty of poetry is the emotions that can be created by words.

      Are you asking if I’m going to vanish from the blogosphere? Eventually, I suppose, but not immediately!
