A new day a new haiku
Rosy autumn glow
Though one day worms devour
Still clinging in hope
From the other side
I saw my life in reverse
Slowly unravel
Put your cares aside
Clouds smeared on a hollow sky
Lifting up my eye
As we fade away
From green to golden to grey
The rest hibernate
Just one final flush
Before we return to dirt
Was this our best work?
Dewy mist rises
Saturated earth exhales
Soft inspiration
Turn it upside down
Can you see yourself better?
Has anything changed?
But what is the point
Of poisonous mushroom
Corrupting the world
Down the hollow way
Did I lose myself again?
Pack my things away
Dashed on the rock face
Where black waves wash us ashore
Grow another shell
Turned by waves and tossed
I cling to the bow and hope
Waiting for a voice
Sometimes you’ll give up
Sometimes all hope will leave you
Sometimes there’s no way
How did they get here?
Though I try to build something
Only scattered stones
Lost in sleepy woods
Slumber and fall back asleep
Stumble over words
One thousand spirits
Moving through the Irish sea
We hold on to peace
Why do we build walls
To keep us shut away from
Everything we love?
Here we loom above
Raging roaring rolling waves
Our feet slip away
Open up the box
Let the wild bramblers roam free
Embrace the chaos
Exploring edges
Here all life diversifies
Where does the land end?
Salty sea spray stings
Take away these broken things
Spread my open wings
The voice in your head
Knows something that you don’t yet
Listen carefully
After the rainfall
Has stripped all the branches bare
Sunshine mocking me
Secrets hide inside
Outside resides wide eyed lies
I’d tried to turn tides
Clear rays of nothing
Through translucent chlorophyll
