A new day a new haiku
Fuzzy black branches
Inundated with white snow
Reticent of life
A crawling hive mind
Never still ever working
Toiling day and night
Mucky wet slime slips
Underfoot, brown and sticky
Dirt your other name
Super hot giant
Under your life giving rays
Nature thrives and grows
Sun’s azure abode
Kings reign in cloud palaces
Yellow as they die
Dandy amber nest
Downy evening lion
Inside out nature
Long life lines laying
Open. Our origin of
Growing golden grain
Bumble through flowers
Existence both name and game
Eyes of five compound
After the fire you
Still bear the same name. Black buds
Hide Winter’s bare shame
Your ancient trunk haunts
Every sacred cemetery
With poison berries
Frothy as pea soup
Our view hidden in thick clouds
Gloomy translucence
I climb, clamber, creep,
Viridescent foliage
You can’t keep me down
Impure cloudy white
Cold, brittle and slippery
Easily broken
Though these walls may change
Inside I remain the same
Wingless grounded still
Push me, pull me out
Move me, flip me, twist me round
Turn me upside down
Sheets of sharp ice smashed
Shattered skin, scatters and skims
The gulf between us
Uncovering logs
At the bottom of the stack
Hidden memories
We ride through the trees
Our wheels flying fast and free
Until Autumn leaves
An hourglass filled
With all the sand in the world
Would not be enough
Wind and rain denied
We decide to hide inside
Beside the fireside
These leaves once so bright
Saturated with decay
Wilt into worm food
In Wellington boots
Dodge scattered sunny showers
We hide in our hoods
Layer on layer
Covering five years mistakes
Becoming lighter
