Haikus of the mind,
form, gel, come together and like,
Spring rain, evaporate!
Ere now your soft lips,
Lilac with heart of fire, inflame me.
First spring flower
Secretly I have been
watching you, wanting you to start.
Watching me too.
On snowy salt-marsh reed,
a lone redwing blackbird clings;
Sentinel of Spring
Waning moon, day star
Aging brother, bright sister
Spring morning wonder
Winter’s crystal chimes,
glittering, cheerfully singing –
Where away? Oh Spring!
One blood red drop
riveting against fallen snow –
Oh, first Cardinal
