SELECTED HAIKU


april morning rain
a finch with red plumage
bursts from the porch eaves



thunder
even the ravens
listen



spring rain
he’s told no one
he’s going blind



july dawn
a flock of geese rise
off the still lake



her hand swims
across my back
sturgeon moon



rippling stream
a crow hops
from rock to rock



winter shadows
rabbit tracks in the snow
between tombstones



a father lets go
of his son’s bike
geese flying south



autumn rain
the outside cat
finally comes inside



raven croak
more and more my father's voice
flies out of my mouth



woodpecker knocks
the silence before
and after



old rolodex
flipping through
tombstones



thunder ends…
rust at the bottom
of the watering can



sparrows flutter
in and out of a hemlock
one more thing without you
