morning mist--
an echo from the other side
of the forest lake

About the author: My name is JÖRGEN JOHANSSON, living in Lidköping, Sweden, and I'm a member of the on-line CHERRY POETRY CLUB. I wrote my first haiku in April, 2001, and started, of course, to write in my native language, publishing a couple of haiku "pamphlets" on my own RIVER MAN publ. co. In March of 2003 I wrote my first haiku in English, and haven't looked back since; i now write DIRECTLY into English.

    first light
    lakeside song
    of a dreamer

    embracing the woods
    with silent creatures about--
    full moon lights my path

    Leafing overnight
    the trees on the other bank-
    first treefrogs' song

    leaving the emergency room
    driving in dense fog
    ...echos of doctor's diagnosis

    pollywog pond

    outdoor evening opera
    ... frogs crooning
    on stage of lily pads

    "Morning mist" is a true gift, Jorgen. The concrete level reads beautifully and then - for those wishing to wander farther - it opens almost mythically to tens of lovely 'beyonds' one can fill in from personal experiece. Thank you, Nancy

    drizzle,
    lazy sunday afternoon
    neighbor waves
