Haiku ( weeds )

She left in springtime,
White globes of daisies explode—
What is left of me.

Lilies bloom in sun—
In the stillness of summer,
. . . Swans till the water.

Birds gather on tree,
Innocent as morning sun—
Cat bleats by window.

Haiku ( red rose )

Love, in garden rose,
Her little hands twining tight,
Heart rapt in tendril.

Haiku (winter bloom)

Snows wrapt in valley,
Each day I return to her,
. . . Flowers in winter.

Haiku (impatient)

I wake to alarm—
Under sink pots, pans banging,
Breakfast time for cat.

Haiku ( luscious )

Her gift was new dress,
Cloud spun silk, gold on her skin,
. . . Soon fell to the floor.

One last winter walk—
Little clouds falling all round,
Snowfields between us.

Haiku ( rebirth )

Buds, birds kindle trees—
Last snows flake with the daisy,
The green sparks of May.

Haiku (wearisome)

Arbiter of sun—
The dogma of run on days,
White, seductress moon.

Haiku ( fishers )

Snowy egrets, pure,
Stoic, white statues of grace,
Digging in the muck.

Zz Haiku ( dizzy )

In the briar patch—
Little birds circle and chirp,
. . . Even sun confused.
