Skinny, bony, bare
branches, twigs, stretched in pale death
amid vibrant green.
Haiku for a dead tree
Tag: Haiku
Scarlet Haiku
A dream in scarlet
twilight gently falls, and blooms
glow with inner light.
A philosophical haiku!
I was here before
you came, and when you are gone
I will still be here.
A River Haiku
Peat brown water, calm
and quiet between the trees
in their summer green.
A Haiku from “Minus One”
Black against the gold
scribbles dark on light, tracings
on a Winter sky.
Winter Haiku
Brittle spikes of grass
frost patterns leaves and stony
earth, dead Winter’s grip.
Birch Tree Haiku
Every branch aloft
reaching for the blue above
draws in pallid heat
A Donegal Haiku
Báisteach, boladh móin
(Rain, the smell of turf)
i bhfad ó Rann na Feirste
(when I’m far from Rannafast)
cumha ar mo chroí.
(sorrow in my heart.)
A Universal Haiku
Be still; half-close your
eyes, and listen to the sound
of the universe.
A Winter Haiku
Black against the gold
tracings on a Winter sky
December sunset.
