A new day a new haiku

I grab at the days

Wildly grasping the thin air

As they drift away

29th June 2021
This twisted oak tree

Dragging out its dying years

Will still out-live me

28th June 2021
Just another boy

Blend into the background noise

Wait for the decoy

27th June 2021
In our different ways

Tracking through the barley maze

Lost in a blue haze

26th June 2021
I turn in again

I can’t navigate this maze

Lost in my safe place

25th June 2021
Through silver meadows

With moths and bats and spiders

Dance in the moonlight

24th June 2021
Keep it trapped in tight

And locked away from daylight

This corrosive blight

23rd June 2021
Infinite choices

Flow into my river of

Possibility

22nd June 2021
The years leave their mark

In your scarred and pitted bark

Our lives just a spark

21st June 2021
Fragile petal frills

Entice bees and bugs to the

Anther and stamen

20th June 2021
Orange blood will flow

Falling from my broken bones

I rest down below

19th June 2021
Parallel lives groan

Untwined, linear, alone

Each head in a phone

18th June 2021
In a human swarm

Though I make a song and dance

I’m invisible

17th June 2021
Cerulean clouds

Sucked into the setting sun

Meet the moody moon

16th July 2021
On a bold ascent

Spreading their sweet heady scent

A heavenly bent

15th June 2021
Take a nightingale

Slow her song down like a snail

It sounds like a whale

14th June 2021
Though they look the same

Each one’s a little different

And there is no best

13th June 2021
Time escapes again

Taking with it plans and schemes

Let’s resort to dreams

12th June 2021
Don’t give up on fun

Soaking up the evening sun

Take it as it comes

11th June 2021
Tangled in the weeds

Twist, turn and squirm to be free

Love caught up with me

10th June 2021
Hawthorn turning pink

In the dizzying dry heat

We are warm at last

9th June 2021
From a jagged hedge

Knotted and skeletal edge

Just an empty sketch

8th June 2021
Weaving my own way

To reach for the stars above

Always falling short

7th June 2021
Though we’re home again

Wonder what’s round the next bend

Never reach the end
