passing clouds --
the horizon blurred
in summer rain

mosques
carving the sky
between them

beautiful sumi-e
a new crane from the brush
of the birthday girl

`

passing clouds
caterpillars here and there
on sunlit leaves

`
afternoon tea --
the cat curls into
a square of sun

Autumn Leaves, v7n5

almost home
scarlet bougainvillea
around the bend

`

curtains flutter
outside, blossoms touch
one another

Simply Haiku, Oct 2003, v1n4

`

safe harbor --
sails full before the wind
near summer's end

playground rain
a white chalk heart
washes away

`

lazy afternoon --
dozing, the cat yawns
beneath the plum

Simply Haiku, Nov/Dec 2004

Sunday school
doodling
in the margins

bus stop bench
coffee in a paper cup
half frozen

`

at the nursery
late sun silhouettes
baby's breath

winter clouds-
jellyfish umbrellas
drift with the tides

`

mountains in spring
overlapping bird songs
all around

autumn wind
a newspaper crosses
against the light

`

around the bend
freckled toadstools
in morning light

soft strokes

a plume of steam -
blue flames flicker
under the teapot

`

indian summer
a quiet time, but
for the bluejays

seemingly lost -
koi in the temple pond
coming and going

little flexing toes
the dog's cold nose
in the stroller

year's end
a path to the moon
on the sea

midnight pleasure
viewing Orion with
the naked eye

`

passing clouds
the tree stump alive
with mushrooms

soft strokes

`

mountain journey
clouds and temple bells
between the peaks
