midwinter night
light from the snow
the stars
Month: February 2011
Black Dog
“You know”, he confided, “I want to walk in front of a truck.” (haibun continues)
a last rocket…
lights twinkle
into the New Year
snow flurry on an empty street the traffic light turns red
Faster and Faster
20,000 years on average from the Sun’s core to its surface… (haibun continues)
sculpture garden–
new snow
on her marble breasts
late afternoon–
a glimpse of sunlight
through her hair
low tide
the silent contractions
of a jellyfish
empty nest
empty nest
still
the bird sings
(haiga)
For Two Horses By the Fence at VCCA
total eclipse–
the sun’s corona streaming
through us
[haibun excerpt]
midnight fog
the street light
a silver dandelion
The fountain’s too lucid
moon–just inches above
a litter of leaves.
snowmelt…
a woodpecker thrums
into thin sun
white phlox blossoms daring the frost
night sky
the rusted tin roof
leaking moonlight
walking back
the way we came
shadows shift
stuttering light
the sound of tea
being poured
a sliver of moon
she asks if he really
exists
