A new day a new haiku

Darkened tributaries

Glimmer, glisten in gold leaf

Desperately clinging

1st November 2020
Setback, set the fire

A setup, set me alight

And so set me free

31st October 2020
Fade into twilight

Scramble through the brambly hedge

Into a warm nest

30th October 2020
Squint through the half light

Seek and search for the half rhyme

Is this a half life?

29th October 2020
So easily crushed

This magic of making things

Where does it come from?

28th October 2020
Drip drop chip chop chap

Left leaves leave leaving leaves left

Beg big bag bog bugs

27th October 2020
In a hazy shroud

Defeated and deflated

Can I carry on?

26th October 2020
Lonely winding lanes

Lead my mind away from pain

I don’t want to face

25th October 2020
Traditions passed on

And many more forgotten

Twixt father and son

24th October 2020
Wanderers don’t rest

Adventurers leave the nest

An unending quest

23rd October 2020
Drag me deeper down

Beneath this steaming mulch heap

Microbial stew

22nd October 2020
Can I build this wall

Faster than it tumbles down?

Shifting sandcastles

21st October 2020
A grey squirrel leaps

Coneys scurry to their holes

As a breeze picks up

20th October 2020
As life twists and flows

Wends and bends its way downstream

Who holds the tiller?

19th October 2020
Robin’s pincushion

Glows in the gathering gloom

Like his beating breast

18th October 2020
I am still walking

But do I want to arrive?

Not out of the woods

17th October 2020
While we were rushing

We missed the plot twists and turns

Let’s take the slow ways

16th October 2020
My autumn son shines

Overflows with hope and joy

These days are too short

15th October 2020
By the drainage ditch

We hunt for fry and minnow

Our river has gone

14th October 2020
Do we really learn

Or just change our opinions?

Am I always wrong?

13th October 2020
Why do I look for

External validation

In the wrong places?

12th October 2020
Sun soaked sycamore
Softly sharing secrets seen
Simply standing still

11th October 2020
Mushrooms cast a spell

But the real magic happens

Underneath the ground

10th October 2020
Here I sought shelter

Blissfully ignorant of

Poison in your wings

8th October 2020
