Haibun



                                           WHAT THERE IS…

in new grass in the scent of lilacs carried by breezes in hills of rocks and wild flowers in the silkiness of a blue sky in a road curving gently down to a green valley in slow moving horses grazing in a field in the smell of black dirt and fresh manure

                                            highway rumble–
                                       in the rear-view mirror
                                            the fading sunset

Hoi Polloi, Autumn 2009
