Haiku

the blue of ocean
did meet with the blue of sky
on the horizon

was as if the two
hues of blue were the one shade
in that far off line

blew under the lounge room door
earlier this morning

on higher regions
of the tablelands this very night
snow flurries will fall

my sister's garden
is looking really gorgeous

o'er the verdant river flats
as first light did break

blustering south winds
have blown constantly all eve
they're packing some speed

shards of light penetrated
to warm the earth's soil

sailed o'er the sky last night
on a mystery tour

of delicate snow settled
on the cottage roof

did come the Atlantic swirl
reeking havoc's toll

out toward the west
there's a gathering of clouds
which look like fluff *****

with a winning hand
there's an element of luck
it's the dealer's call

stretched for miles unto

glittering arrays of stars
sparkling like jewels

played on the lake's surface
like diamond sparkles

last vestiges of day light
slowly reclined

didst come in a primrose bloom
of vibrant pink blush

slowly snaked a passage
through the wooded glen

through the tall timber masts
their boughs left rankled

having his hands attending
her ample bosoms

emerge from winter's cocoon
of white snow wrapping

a pair of white ibises
foraged for frogs

a glassy mirage shimmered
on the long hot day

light veils of mist hung
o'er the river's snaking course
on day break dawning

corn tassels swayed
in the scorching summer breeze
during December

As I live in the Southern Hemisphere, summer is between the months of December and February. Our season are in reverse to those of the Northern Hemisphere.

drove a freezing current's trail
through the snow clad dales

slowly the fog creeps
in our township's sleeping streets
dense is its heavy shroud
