Haiku



                             stacking stones
                             for a garden wall
                             the weight of their age

Haiku

 

                                         changing homes-
                                         the spring sun
                                         gentles the move

                                        April warmth-
                                        a new crop of dandelions
                                        since yesterday

                                        spring morning
                                        the smell of wet earth
                                        warming in the sun

Haiku




                                             bouquets of lilacs
                                             the last bunch fills
                                             a milk bottle

                                             twilight rain
                                             the scent of lilacs
                                             through the window
 
                                            dead heading lilacs
                                            the fragrance lingers
                                            in memory
