A new day a new haiku
—

A million stems Each the same, all different Evenly diverse
New grass, green and bright Growing in the afternoon Clear and clean and light
Wavy seas of grass Their heavy heads sway and bend Hazy seeds of brass
May your days be full Of sunshine and happiness The merriest month
Clear crystals crackle Take the blade to the whet stone Let time do his work
The scythe slides softly With gentle grace, through the grass Sunshine alchemy
Lie in the long grass Supported by sharp green blades A premonition
In the long green grass Longing for greener fields and Longer days to stay
Calico clouds cry A fine mist in the moonlight Why do we ask why?
Happy golden days Arise as memories fade A phoenix from flames
Through my clouded eyes Warm shadows streak cream canvas The longest of days
Fears drown confidence Tears wash away memories Years distill to joy
