robin of red breast - haiku

robin of red breast

greets new day with joyous song,

slowly spring arrives

Burrowed

 

Burrowed in worn quilts

as another blizzard

covers the land

in its own natural form

of protection and warmth

seed away - haiku

 

finches and grosbeaks

flock to the feeder before

snow blows seed away

watcher

 

3:30 a.m. the watcher stares

out into the neighbourhood.

It is silent, and dark until

a figure appears plodding

along the street.

Another like the watcher

who can’t sleep this night,

walks alone in its own world.

One night the watcher

will join the figure offering a cuppa...

winds - haiku

 

winds roaring through fields

and forests, stripping limbs off

old growth trees, world aches
