The Art of Haiku
| Selections from Ukku Spring Haiku 2006 | |
|---|---|
|
the spring moon was at my window in the night but it has gone now too |
the evening news — regardless green spikes push up out of dark earth |
|
spring freshness — a naked mannequin in the ski-shop window |
 |
|
clear cold blue — all the things I've wanted but couldn't have |
promise of brightness in a gift of daffodil buds — snow on St David's Day |
 |
 |
|
spring dusk — the neighbour's vacuum cleaning ends with a sigh |
spring sun's warmth — I catalogue a book of death poems I'm cataloguing the British Haiku Society Library |
|
equinox a Harley in the car-park, going nowhere fast |
officially spring — the council daffodils begin to bloom |
|
talk of bouncing back from adversity — rain turns to hail |
spits and spots of rain — the postman brings a ticket for a summer evening show |
|
cold spring — news of an ex's engagement |
