Haiku 2010/212

first fallen fig leaf
bright yellow on the dull green
grass of late July

Haiku 2010/211

crowded on a train
stuck like an obnoxious tune
you want to forget

Haiku 2010/210

mysterious milk!
sitting for days in the cold,
then it just goes bad

28 July 2010

Haiku 2010/209

even in summer
the memories of summer
make the sweetest songs

Haiku 2010/208

(for Anne Akiko Meyers; h/t to Lisa)

feeling winter's chill,
I lie here longing to hear
summer's lullaby

Haiku 2010/206

voices on TV
drone chatter and shout while I
keep on half-sleeping

24 July 2010

Haiku 2010/205

a burst of birdsong
breaks the afternoon quiet
then again quiet

23 July 2010

Haiku 2010/204

afternoon eyelids
droop over littered papers
much too tired to sleep
