A new day a new haiku

Follow me down here

Between the weeping birch trees

Slip into the lake

25th November 2020
Reckless abandon

Into the sunset she runs

The adventurer

24th November 2020
The road ahead looks

The same as the path behind

When you reach the end

23rd November 2020
You cannot pause life

Or wait for all the answers

There’s no solution

22nd November 2020
Let me follow you

Around the lake. Help me to see

The world with new eyes

21st November 2020
One day all must fall

Released to the stoney ground

Finally we’re free

20th November 2020
I won’t hold you back

But I’ll be here. I hope you

Don’t let go of me

19th November 2020
We cut, carve and climb

Train and trim: bend, burn and break

What do trees demand?

18th November 2020
The days still shorten

In the shrinking horizon

So we must press on

17th November 2020
The slow silent creep

In wiry tendrils entwined

Bramblers always win

16th November 2020
These fleeting moments

Impossible to capture

Like hunting for ghosts

15th November 2020
Hazy halos hang

Between bare brackish branches

Murky mists make myths

14th November 2020
And what will remain

Of the things we do and say

In a thousand years?

13th November 2020
When all you have left

Are memories, cling on tight

Never let them go

12th November 2020
Old questions expel

From every crook and nanny

Derelict puzzles

11th November 2020
Some days slowly slide

Into dreams from somewhere else

Gently slip away

10th November 2020
Through our father’s fields

We will follow every path

Crooked and oblique

9th November 2020
Suffocating fug

Creeping between chinks and cracks

I seal myself in

8th November 2020
When the scythe comes down

And severs the world in two

Time himself stands still

7th November 2020
Four walls and a roof

A solid comfortable trap

Adventure awaits

6th November 2020
Hope dawns unbidden

With a blue moon exigent

So I try again

5th November 2020
Rip this land in two

So there is nothing to miss

When you’re tearing past

4th November 2020
If you keep moving

You can stay out in the cold

Indefinitely

3rd November 2020
Float away downstream

Carried in gentle currents

My eyelids closing

2nd November 2020
