Celebrate months end
Look forward while looking back
Fair weather or rain

Golden Day

Watch sun rise and set
Rush, wait, through the days hours
It's gold we can spend

Perpetual Rain

Unenlightened life
Sacrifice others to love
Perpetual rain

Beautiful Dreams

Swan song of days end
Auras speak of things to come
Sleep, beautiful dreams

Cooling Wind

Nighttime cooling wind
The power to be reclaimed
Gift for day well spent

Stones

Stones tell a story
Glory and pain of the past
We just need to hear

Celebration

Fragile existence
Flowers do not have a care
Celebrate your life

Silent Language

A sweet song of spring
Silent language of flowers
Quietness of dusk

Last Laugh?

Prelude to summer
Hanging out amid spring snows
Who has the last laugh?

Outpouring of Love

Outpouring of love
Watching plants after the rain
Sunshine on my face

Walk in the Rain

Evening walk in rain
Half in light, half in shadow
Diamonds surround me

Looking in the deep dark place
Searching for sunlight

Children play in snow
Guarded by charred sentinels
Sad smile, happy tears

Future in Focus

Future in focus
Fruit trees blooming overnight
What small things are missed

Tricky Choice

On breaking a mold
Try to contain excitement
Tricky water course

Spring Days

Basking in sunshine
Warm wind blows away cobwebs
Grateful for spring days

Poetry Month

This poetry month
Writing haiku for myself
All these trees gone now

Watching

Watching in silence
Awaiting serenity
For fruit trees to bloom

Melted Snow

Spring snow has melted
Wind whipping through budding trees
I suddenly feel

Spring Snow

A lovely spring snow
White world enfolds all around
Issues with driving

What Is

Build a resistance
Want things to be different
Nature knows what is

Struggle?

Is life a struggle
Have we imposed our own thoughts
Can nature answer?
