Spring
bright spray
dark sky behind
first cherry blossom
fountain trickles
bamboo smiles --
new grass stretches
how strange!
showers
fall on ice
ivy tendrils
circle the air
seek new directions
jumping into puddles
splish splash -
haiku walking
morning sunshine
through slatted blind
so bright!
new washed cat
each hair
licked clean
old grey poet
thinks of gardens
forgets words
on the wet log
a fluffed duckling
waits
pinecone drops
cogs whir --
cuckoo!
tall tree shaking
raggedy rooks rising -
what a racket!
song thrush perches
shakes rain away
splash!
still pond
grows sudden circles -
first raindrops
sudden breeze
plays on the pond
koi rise for breakfast
three bean rows
so straight
so neat
two kittens playing
sun shines warm --
two kittens sleeping
between moonshadows
a vixen screaming --
pheromone night
curious robin
begs crumbs
hates Hershey
in the misty rain
one bittern
booms
kitten lifts cat flap
flip flop
still raining
river floods
safe dry cat
watches
wild night screams --
vixen plays
in moon shadows
throwing a pebble
across the pond --
see it bounce!
