haiku forty eight

morning walk

those chattering sparrows

empty my head

~

haiku forty five

racing home

to write down the haiku

i know i will forget

~

haiku forty four

the blue butterfly

landed on my nose

and reminded my heart

~

haiku thirty nine

my days as shadow

a muted gust of pale wind

one step

then another

~

haiku thirty six

in the moonlight

my old cat

waits for the shooting star

~

haiku thirty four

a heartbeat –

the old dog’s ashes

under my fingernails

~

haiku thirty three

in the room

with the loom in it

threads morph

into poems

~

haiku thirty two

solar eclipse

as my mind

slips

~

haiku thirty one

taking its time

morning mist

creeps through the apple trees

~

haiku twenty nine

hollyhocks peep in virgin snow

moon silvering

stars come and go
