Selections from Ukku Spring Haiku 2006 | |
---|---|
spring breeze against a cloud filled sky the roar of jets |
temple bells once again through pear blossoms |
bitter coffee red and white Easter lilies nod in the breeze |
Easter morning — hidden in the old grapevine a bulbul's new nest |
another Easter the jacaranda fades into a lilac sky |
dull dusty day in my workworn hands a painted egg |
dry dusty day in my workworn hands painted eggs |
passing spring my sneeze rearranges the pollen |
spring cleaning— the scent of lavender on those letters |
across and down the forgotten crossword puzzle a patch of sun |
