Haiku ( suddenly )

Flies above the fish . . .
All stillness on the lost pond,
. . . Until water breaks.

Haiku ( cresting )

Clouds wafting above,
Seabirds sailing in the sky,
. . . Whitecaps on the bay.

Haiku ( aspen )

Aspen, stands by river,
Shouting out the noonday sun,
Dwarfed by foothill mountains.

Soft breaths, her long hair,
Sweetest unrest under sheets,
. . . Moist wind that itches.

In sorrows' garden,
Out of clear blue sky— omen,
Small floating feather.

Zz Haiku ( chasing )

Two ways of seeing—
Shadows running after game,
Round face of the moon.

Pond lilies basking,
Misty buds of sleepy rain,
. . . Water envelopes.

At end of desert,
My bones by her oasis,
So real was mirage.

Two Trees

One road splits two trees
The leaves will forever reach -
Cursed with desire

Wicked Walk in Winter

Walk beside me as
Snowflakes fall like memories
And melt the Wicked

Haiku ( mischief )

Lone raven cackles . . .
Clouds splinter across the sky,
Mist cuts down the woods.

Haiku ( holdout )

Spot on naked tree—
Fall winds took all leaves but one,
. . . Dry leaf still dancing.

Haiku ( glazed )

Rain wells in soft eyes,
Droplets drib by the windows,
My lips on her cheek.
