day without asking
day without asking
unsaid what is borne by hours
twenty-foured season

haiku in and of itself
so much undefine

away from all things
only bloom and branch attract
safety in numbers

brown water like the wide wide river

today in Pennsylvania, a bipartisan passing of two bills that support research as well as life with breast cancer; I guess haikus are not supposed to serve as news reporters; but on hearing this report at noon, three lines came to mind

haiku

1
slow nature inside
plants grow in unsure seasons
ours darkness or light
x
2
unsurely outside
winter by a calendar
summer another
x
3
creature on a branch
cardinal or squirrel set
then fly or skitter

(like those earlier, these haiku can relate to each other, though I doubt there is a rule about connection; or each haiku may stand alone, which I guess is more traditional)

haiku

1
twenty pages in
the need to gaze and breathe out
outside for elsewhere
x
2
city-wise black trees
darkened too the sky-wept street
nature go with tears
x
3
after rain is haze
exhale into clarity
newly gifts of night

haiku (3) after Hallowtide
x
x
seasons ending in
new seasons beginning to
take hold then let go
x
x
red leaves like children
bright and shiny always changing
into something else
x
x
evergreen until
needles wither due to lack
of water and air
