returning home
three hours older–
clock strikes twelve

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
autumn chill-
feeling twice
my age
feeling how fast
time has passed
three hours after forty years old
my first twilight
the passage of time –
bright sunrays this autumn morn
birthday balloons…
the one that doesn’t deflate
bursts
echoes of silence
running through the larch grove
transparent morning
thoughts of home
off in the distant —
field recently planted
