even the canoeist
is still

  1. Hello Dawn. I readed your haiku and liked it. I am writing from Albania and congratulate you for your composition. as for knowlegde I am sending you my haiku:

    Forest at December’s end
    the wind is arguering
    with the bare woods.

  2. I wish our canoists, rowers, etc… would be still for a moment…

    autumn twilight …
    swan shapes separate
    for the lone boatman

    before I get there
    the sound of the weir –
    floating dandelion

  3. sun going down
    cricets syncopate,
    lengthening

    so cool, past midnight
    cricket’s drone
