under the
magnifying glass
a ladybird’s tears

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. View all posts by Jörgen Johansson
a grasshopper
on my kitchen wall
when’s lunch?
So many lights and shades…
only a single tear
at the microscope
This is one of the most moving and beautiful haiku I have read in a long time.
Keep up the good work!
so many tears
in the midst of the rain —
these are mine
full moon
dances in the sea
all night long
birds fly high
and ants scurry on the wall
hot bright day
under higher
magnification
was that the aphids scream
Vaughn Banting
young over-
achievers
circles under eyes
tears magnified —
opaque
the stained-glass window
