haiku fourteen

wanting him –

a dark shadow falls

from last years diary

~

cold

this afternoon’s rain

shares its indigo chill

with dawn’s winter light

deja vu

breeze curling over the hill

leaves shiver

another memory slips away

~

impermanence

one by one

her tears fell in the river

they were but shadows

reading haiku

ginkgo leaves fall from the page

before tears

~

st valentine’s day

sea fog creeps in

over the pier…

smell of dead fish

after the Bach

the clouds darkening

still

dusk

warm rain

fills the old dew pond –

the winking hawk waits

in passing

a

 nod

a

smile…

the

old

man’s

sadness –

follows

me

home

connection

at the family grave…

my

grandmother’s

voice

now merely a whisper
