Winter horse

She came down running
from the frosted virgin snow
stood on the roadside
in the evening winter glow
as the northerlies did blow

Against the Odds...Haiku.

naked Winter trees
thrashed by freezing wind and rain
now bearing Spring buds

trees (haiku)

trees are shedding leaves

natures calender is turned

leaves meet ground again

Senryu

caught in the moment
reflection in a window
who covets their time

It's a sad sad song
beyond all hope of appeal
holding your photo


stealing from Dylan:

Along the watchtower
all the women came and went
princes kept the view

Surreal Nature (haibun)

Walking through the sweet flower meadows, I pause to watch the sky lark
as he tumbles joyously in the sunlit sky and perches on a branch
to sing in such sweet melody that mistle thrush and blackbird join in.

Flowers smelling sweet
in such a variety
of colour and shape

A peaceful place to sit and enjoy all nature has to offer
to lean back and let go of every day stress and woes. To
celebrate just the joy of being alive and able to enjoy nature

Nature does her best
if only we care to look
at all her splendours

HAIKU FOR YOU (with bonus feature of author's interpretation) - "What do ghost see in a mirror?"

"What do ghosts see in a mirror?"

Oak's underbelly.
where dreams appeal naturally
mom slipped from the crypt.


Oak's underbelly... (in the shade of an oak tree on a sunny lazy day)

where dreams appeal naturally...(be easy to fall asleep)

mom slipped from the crypt...(dreamt a lot about my mom right after she passed but she didn't know she was dead)

Profound ( A JKu)

Peaceful calm waters
Mistreated and defiled
World is not trash can

FOOD HAIKU POEMS

Only green salad
Can't stand it, makes me feel sad
Fasting then is bad.

Eat fruits everyday
To the loo an easy way
Drives the doctor away.

Strawberries are sweet
But ice cream is the best treat
Ate in bed, stained sheet.

Remember don't cry
I'll bake fruit and chicken pie
Before sunset's goodbye.
