I'm partial to Summer haiku right now. :)
I hope the secrets didn't last just as anything written in sand also cannot.
warm regards,
Alan

A verse from a sequence entitled Ry?an-ji:
??our sharp mysteries?
the percussion of sand?
over rocks
after John Cage

Who can say Alan…certainly not me…
Thanks for all your support

Thanks Mark :-)
It's certainly a haiku that resonates.
warm regards,
Alan
My 3-line verse should have read as:
our sharp mysteries
the percussion of sand
over rocks
after John Cage
Alan Summers

.
precious moments
gone
with the tide
This one makes me think of first love and how fleeting it can be – or fickle! :)
