A new day a new haiku

Purple birch buds shine

Light on a distant mountain

Just a bit further

19th April 2023
Early evening glow

Let the sunlight shine through you

Where does it end up?

18th April 2023
Don’t take the straight road

Some corners should not be cut

What will you find there?

17th April 2023
Moss bedraggled limbs

Drag me deeper down to dirt

Can I rise again?

16th April 2023
Why should walls be square?

Why do we make edges straight?

Go now, ask the trees

15th April 2023
I am the water

And I am the deep blue sea

You can’t keep music

14th April 2023
Sheltered from sea spray

A mist of blackthorn blossoms

Gathering the gloam

13th April 2023
In freezing torrents

Meander down the mountain

Swept back to the sea

12th April 2023
The front blows over

Blasting us with sand and hail

We battle onwards

11th April 2023
Last year’s yellow sedge

Frames old pines and blackthorn hedge

I let my world shrink

10th April 2023
Water ebbs and flows

From cloud, to mountain, to sea

We close all the gaps

9th April 2023
Inside the black cliffs

Rumbled tumbled thundered rolled

By the sundering sea

8th April 2023
I hear the mountains

Calling across the valley

To which should I heed?

7th April 2023
How slow can I go

And still escape entropy?

How high is the moon?

6th April 2023
Each start is an end

Everything’s a beginning

Where the willow bends

5th April 2023
Slowly but surely

Spring inevitably springs

I always miss it

4th April 2023
Spring is never late

It comes just as it’s ready

And it always comes

3rd April 2023
A giant puzzle

Where you make your own pieces

And nothing quite fits

2nd April 2023
Just round the corner

Rising from the garden waste

Secret hiding place

1st April 2023
I’m the earth and dirt

I’m the sun and I’m the moon

I’m the new sprung grass

31st March 2023
Somehow we survive

The time is now, we are here

And we are alive

30th March 2023
Imposing spires loom

Casting gloomy grey shadows

Across woods and fields

29th March 2023
Cold evening light flows

Though my ears, down to my toes

Wallow in my woes

28th March 2023
Curled up in new buds

The autumn crop of apples

Already forming
