A new day a new haiku
Tucked in to the hills
Grasses shimmer and ripple
Betraying the wind
Lost in the meadow
Quivering with the seed heads
What if this was home?
A million stems
Each the same, all different
Evenly diverse
If I stay ’til dawn
In the long meadows of June
Will I be reborn?
Some days never end
The edge of the sky shines through
Slowly shadows fade
Now in my memory
I go back to the meadow
Everything I need
Meadows turning brown
We drink in every detail
The year’s pinnacle
In restless grassland
Ripples graze a hazy grace
And stills racing hearts
Through silver meadows
With moths and bats and spiders
Dance in the moonlight
Good morning meadow
The dew is wet, the sun shines
Let’s make hay today
As I try to read
The story of the landscape
I look for my place
Skip though the meadow
Carefree frolicking scamper
Chasing butterflies
What strange alchemy
Turns these precious hay meadows
From silver to gold?
Hazy twilight glow
Dew settles on the meadow
They never grow old
In the green meadow
Wild grasses and flowers grow
Wait for us mow
You can break a horse
And mow a meadow, but you
Can’t tame this wild heart
