A new day a new haiku

Iridescent skies

Rise up, roll the die, cast and

Drift into dark eyes

2nd January 2019
Nestled in the warmth

Of the prickly holly copse

Western sun breaks through

1st January 2019
There is no undo

There is only what we do

There’s no going back

31st December 2018
The last year’s berries

From reflections of the past

Into future seeds

30th December 2019
Only in moments

Can we appreciate life

So enjoy the ride

29th December 2018
Soar adventurer

At the end of your tether

I won’t reel you in

28th December 2018
Through winter branches

Standing weeds and frosty grass

So shines the morning

27th December 2018
Towering above

Creeping to the underworld

Fathers forgotten

26th December 2018
The gathering gloom

Rolls down the hillside and seeps

Into the wild wood

25th December 2018
Whiley whiskers twitch

In the damp dawn woodland air

Tracks left in the mud

24th December 2018
Twisted tree trunks turn

Towards the turbulent tide

They twine together

23rd December 2018
Between still waters

And this twisted tangled mess

We’re still in limbo

22nd December 2018
Cerulean skies

An ever changing painting

A silver lining

21st December 2018
Without the sunlight

Slanting sideways, long and low

There’s only shadow

20th December 2018
Fright turns fight to flight

Tonight blight bites back in spite

The slight fox’s plight

19th December 2018
Strike a single match

Set it gently on a branch

Watch the paper catch

18th December 2018
Blood ran through my veins

Now I’m frozen through again

Leave me in the dark

17th December 2018
Can we make a choice?

Whichever fork we go down

There is but one road

16th December 2018
Between furrowed clouds

In the long forgotton dust

A still silent rest

15th December 2018
As a river flows

Along the longest of roads

Ever on we go

14th December 2018
Underneath layers

Unspoken expectations

Untamed and broken

13th December 2018
Squeeze through barbed wire

And between tangled branches

Anywhere but home

12th December 2018
As the years roll on

Shadows of lost memories

Return to the soil

11th December 2018
Red barked willow wands

Secret whispers in the breeze

Whipped up by wild winds

10th December 2018
