distant hills
even my gaze
turning green

headstone in moonlight
my problems
still keeping you awake

Northern lights
glow green tonight
let’s take the long way home

Seven Honourable Mentions
(In no particular order)
snowing snowed in
poems hung on frozen trees the teapot
till next spring sounds alarm
Anna Plesums William Sorlien, USA
a light breeze storm winds
bent tree a sparrow clings
resists no longer to the swaying feeder
Alexander Ask Peggy Heinrich
out of the twining tortured wind
of two smiles, a universe the sharp angles
engulfed us of twisted birch
Dick Pettit Linda Pilarski, Canada
post-divorce date--
rubbing the pale band
on my ring finger
Nora Wood
Other Haiku of Merit
my phone rings chilly morning
late brother’s magpie atop the snowman
birthday reminder feasts on an eye
Alexander Ask Patricia Benedict, Canada
an ant dormiveglia...*
carrying one of the ants chirrup chirrup chirrup
that didn’t make it of the cicadas
Owen Bullock Raffael de Gruttola, USA
*Italian for sleep-walking
it's time to make a trip a cock-pigeon
for my birthplace sweeps the cobblestones
of folklore and flowers regurgitates a titbit
Terry Ishii, USA Hans Jongman, Canada
the new rabbi's wife flaming the earth, sky
takes one step at a time linking the aeons they fly;
Israeli dancing ancient flamingos
Howard Lee Kilby, USA Aju Mukhopadhyay, India
Tale of cherries from a nameless bird wondering
only stars listening how many we've missed. . .
in autumn night northern lights
Rajib Phukan, India Patrick M. Pilarski, Canada
temple pond... a fine garden
his little hand full of in the traffic circle
puffed rice once more around
K. Ramesh, India William Sorlien, USA
Welcoming the sun Fit of sneezes
dew drops on dry leaves– no winter allergy
an epitaph thinking of sex
R.K.Singh, India
total solar eclipse A green ivy -
the clouds hide the sun in the empty house
from our view the only guest.
john tiong chunghoo Antinic Zoran, Serbia
Drying and rising Young gulls
The freshly-washed lettuce leaves Clashing for a bit of crumbs
On the table Also with their shadows
