A new day a new haiku
A minnow dancing
Through the weeds and rushes past
The reeds and rushes
Enjoy the process
It takes as long as it takes
There is no hurry
Fears drown confidence
Tears wash away memories
Years distill to joy
Evenings stretch out long
Memories of summers now gone
How long will this go on?
Solitary lark
Keep our troubled hearts and minds
Shining in the dark
Thwarted by my pride
A virus creeping inside
Don’t cry and don’t try
Once I went outside
Bathed in warm sunlight, but now
We are stuck at home
I twist and I twine
I bend and I bind myself
I clamber and climb
Let go of the day
Melting, fading, drift away
Colours turn to grey
As the grass grows long
So will I be forgotten
This I remember
Soft flowers cascade
And break up these sharp edges
With violet cloud spray
Lined up on the stave
And by fear and strife smitten
My own wrath assuage
Beneath the red glow
Do we make our own choices
Or do they make us?
Canvas shadows say
It’s gonna be a good day
Come whatever may
We all look elder
If the mountain turned to ash
Wood yew pine fir me?
Every where we go
Swaying clouds of chervil spray
Musky opaque scent
Each day is the same
But the sunsets always change
Still treading water
A creeping speedwell
Begins the transformation
From lawn to meadow
Warty visitors
Leaping through the vegetables
Welcome any time!
A small simple home
Closer to the green garden
Comfortable creatures
I wish I could share
This apple blossom. I hope
To share the apples
A crack in the sky
Letting fears out and light in
Carry me away
Never cast a clout
Cast doubt on every forecast
‘Til the may is out
Your opening eyes
Start to see your where your world ends
And others begin
