Autumn Wrinkles: A Haiku Sequence ☊calm twilight
a blossom circling in its fall on the lake wrinkled face of wind inside and outside of me autumn wrinkles autumn waterfall listening deep to my inner voice all the journeys i shouldn't have taken – sunken boat Overspill: A Tanka Sequence ☊with my child
on my shoulder, i walk in the long rain carrying the heaviness of shattered dreams how long can a robin hold its song in autumn my late father's words stirring my soul how much rain can a little cloud hold the overspill of resentment her only identity ❊ |
Pink Blossom: A Tanka Sequence ☊dawn
on the horizon ... the flight of the first pied hornbill carrying its call a birdbath full of migrated birds … at the resort the wind carrying a child’s song february sky an oriole on the pink blossom I watch the birder in me Spring Again: A Haiku Sequence ☊spring drizzle
the bipinnate leaves fold into shyness rain of cherry blossoms-- remaining spring waters of spring father backstrokes into healthiness lake sunrise a duckling sets off downstream |
rice fields ... bent woman reaping gossip spring’s end my infant fingers the fallen petal spring dream a rooster stirs the stillness into dawn the crows are vanishing at twilight my child stretches the end of play across the border everything feels fresh except this loneliness in me ... being without you holding on with what she left behind winter moon ❊ |
first light last night's rain cupped in a mushroom a monarch flutters against the train window i set it free from my fingertips and wing along with it night blossoms the elders swing dance in the neighborhood distant hill a river carrying the spring paddy field the stream carrying clouds autumn sky patches of twilight in the falling leaf ❊ |
