Waiting

Periwinkle mist

Over sullen sleepy hills

I wait for you here.

Flame-and-grapefruit sky

Over fields that shade their eyes

I wait for you here.

Sun-sick greening air

Over crooked cow'ring trails

I wait for you here.

Gravel-gray rainfall

 Over mute and haggard cliffs

 I wait for you here.

Blunt-edged silence clasps the world

I tuck my chin, wander home.

I submitted this poem in the "haiku sonnet" challenge, but the last two lines got messed up. This happens frequently on my entries, and I don't know why. Hopefully this version will be the way I had intended it originally.
