when I look again

it's gone

lighthouse-

dreaming an April storm

by candle

the last crow home

HAIKU DAY SPECIAL

Sari Grandstaff

haiku day 17

walking like an Egyptian

a cardboard cop

hangs loose

a cardboard cop

in an April shower

scares nobody

a cardboard cop

in an April shower

flattens grass

M U S I C A L U D E

seasons around

rowing our little boats

to Calvary

seasons around

rowing our little boats

in the Milky Way

drum roll. . .

Sumer Is Icumen In

hi-hat crash!

April-

the fields are filling

up!

20

what's this?

fresh meadow muffins

over the moon

foxes 20

split sec·onds-

eating a miracle of existence

the fox's children

21

haute couture!

April's flower sprites

getting dressed

where the cat walks-

next door's flower sprites

getting visible

Earth Day 2013

mental enslavement

who is to say?

22

all in a dream

now, little girl big

still, we thank each other

for being

you

23

sheep and clouds

sleeping with the fishes

in a river's bed

23

careless

of gates and fences-

spring breeze

24

with tails entwining

to nails on chalkboard music-

moonlit city

24

planetaria of sky-

but, under the lambs' bed

my twinkling village!

bête noire-

next door's black cat

surveys the sleeping crows

April full moon-

next door's black cat

sits on its shadow

26

an ant

at the school bus stop

changes its mind

26

turning on. . .

another spring of many

a small blue world

27

not dark yet-

western reds and flowers

where clouds spill

27

wayfaring. . .

down in primrose valley

a tiny car

late for work –

cherry petals

in my hair

April hills-

through a moonlit window

the pillow's gift

28

in slo-mo

next door's black cat

stalks a flower

April shower-

the little dog barks

at a puddle

Jade Pisani: "Lots of images here. My favourite is the ripples in the puddle because of the dog's bark."

◠‿◠ Now we know why. . .

old pond

a frog jumps in

the sound of water

Basho

eye crispies-

a spring breeze

in glasses

30

April shower,

dashing itself to pieces-

foil in a hedge

30

bouncing. . .

summer shower

flowers

English summer

in a puddle

time
