May 2011

it has roots
but who would know?
lotus bloom

haiku stream ...
the endless flow
of blossoms

ancient frog ...
a haiku splashes
among ahas

darkness shrouds
over bare branches ...
autumn crow

late homework -
he cuts and pastes
web searches

snap election -
a politician harvests
platitudes

dark dark night ...
he enters the alchemy
of dreams

on her ear
her lover lost
in sunrise

night of stars . . .
a child tiptoes
in the shallows

full moon ...
she flashes me
her smile

a power plant
seeding manipura rain ...
radiant spring

hint of autumn ...
hedgehogs roll out
of wonderland

the making of
a beggar's banquet ...
open hands

the autumn sun
somewhere behind the smoke
of her cremation

common ground -
the dreams of the forgotten
take a break

the scatter
of autumn leaves ...
giggling child

cold morning ...
a late rose blooms
a shadow

deepening night -
the silence between
heartbeats

autumn dusk ...
long forgotten bottles
bob in the tide

morning mist -
the nameless that haunts
my mirror
