Recently, I have been writing haikus on a daily basis, here are the first 8 or so, each done as a reaction to the day really.
Near Sunset
Clenching the fence
The clouds look nearer and nearer
When the sun goes down.
The Storm
Fading into the light
The scream of the wind pushes
You over then your car.
Cover the flooding
Shrouded by the mist
River sounds rise on the breeze
Beside a cold stream.
Step into the past in dreams
Mistaking shadows for then
I went past your flat again today
Translating images for tears.
Drinking water by the coastline
Quenching my thirst on
The coastline, I knew if I dare
I would soon regret it.
A Metaphor for leaving
Leaving summer again
Leaves lift themselves skyward
Like birds flying south.
Long distance love affair on the beach
Love sprouts slowly
Between the sun and the moon
As a opaque clock.
A haiku about returning to the beaches
When it is safe there again
Picking up pebbles
You wonder how long before the dream
Becomes reality again.
Close the Door
Leaving your sadness behind
Your emotions mirror in the clouds
Until you close the front door.
