Haiku/Senryu
Ann K. Schwader
fox
on the shed roof
his thoughts his own
|
|
|
| |
wind chimes
answer each other
winter's end |
|
| |
|
blue flax
back from the roots
clearing sky |
Gregory Hopkins
| |
|
stormy night
I read her letter
out loud |
| |
so cold
the moon
bends
|
|
sunset
the shadows
of our lives |
|
|
Perry D. Guevara
in the grey winter
cold she blooms
origami flowers
|
|
|
| |
my eyes
blink a lot
like the stars
|
|
| |
|
she sleeps on a hill
beneath the man
in the moon |
Keith Heiberg
| |
|
sudden gust
in the maple:
forgotten rain |
| |
changing his mind,
the child orders
the rain to fall
|
|
now that the mushrooms are up
the moon can set
|
|
|
Keiko Izawa
I'm thinking
thinking, thinking. . .
crescent moon
|
|
|
| |
occasionally
our heartbeats synchronized
autumn moonlight |
|
| |
|
measuring his love
in the last ice cube. . .
summer night |
Carolyn Hall
| |
|
new yoga stretch
flood waters begin
to recede |
| |
lakeside walk
the sunlit glow
of a red umbrella
|
|
homeward-bound . . .
down through the clouds
snow-capped granite
|
|
|
Patrick Frank
my son tells me about the darkness inside himself |
crickets sing inside and out waiting for Linda to join me in bed |
the cry of a solitary bird just before the creation of green
|
Ashley Rodman
| |
|
gravity
the countless stars
of butterfly weed |
| |
light curves
in the tomcat’s eye
blood moon |
|
nude
in the rose moss
a clay pot |
|
|
paul pfleuger jr.
with you
at the back of my tongue—
the East River |
|
|
| |
the lives I've led
by this dark river
only in name |
|
| |
|
in the depths of autumn
merely something
we slap together |
John Barlow
|
|
a well-endowed
marble god seed pods
pop in the heat |
| |
old pier . . .
a shoal of small fish
rain-ripple the surface |
|
splattered black
a fisherman paddles
ink from a squid |
|
|
Lynne Rees
at the top of the hill
I am still
the same size |
|
|
| |
a raindrop
balanced on a leaf of grass –
someone is crying |
|
| |
|
bright star
shining close to the moon …
my emails unanswered |
Bruce Ross
| |
|
Earth Day
a faded blue trail sign
on an old tree |
| |
branch by branch
up the old pine
spring wind |
|
spring morning
slower than the clouds
two crows |
|
|
Robbie Gamble
my side of the bed
her side of the bed
fall equinox |
|
|
| |
dead deer
on the highway shoulder
fifth of July |
|
| |
|
muggy night
deep in the fridge
radishes |
Margarita Engle
| |
|
insomnia
the night blooming
jasmine |
| |
levitation
the lone cloud
above its shadow
|
|
moonflower
the fragrance
of names |
|
