city lights
the names of the stars
i used to know

Modern Haiku 45.2

if i could
read your mind
forced paperwhites

snowing again
i file my nails
too short

solitary walk...
the moment a branch
shakes off snow

Modern Haiku 44.3

estranged friend
a boulder by the creek
entwined with roots

The Heron's Nest XIV.3

morning overcast
ink from a cuttlefish
darkens the rocks

A Hundred Gourds 2.1

bolted lettuce
the favour
i shouldn't have asked

Presence 49

12 seconds to green
a bumblebee
crosses the road

The Heron's Nest XVI.1

blossom wind
a black swan flaps
its clipped wings

wood anemone
the indifference
of joggers



sorry for my scarceness, there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in a day...

we drink tea
from the same cup...
spring rain

lotus pond
a stream of koi follows
the passing feet

city lights
the names of the stars
i used to know

scraping poo
from the balcony...
blackbird song

trying too hard
the thin end
of a bell curve

perigee moon
i lose myself
in a fairy tale

some sun at last
pigeons cross the roofs
in a diamond formation

night snow
a fox reappears
in my dream

lake mist
the sound of a paddle
approaching the shore

her will to carry on
a fractus cloud drifts
across the rainbow
