dusk releases fireflies

I've been writing and studying haiku since 1992. I've self-produced a few of my own collections of haiku, most recently 'ku' in 2000, and 'nine haiku: winterness' this past winter. I am currently working on a collection of one-line haiku to be completed by this summer.
etched in tree bark
the names of lovers
no longer in love
winterness
even without the wind
the chill
on the table
where the book sat
a clean spot
sudden wind
blowing in from somewhere
yesterday’s news
after the ebb
little fingers
spelling out his name
stone-skipping
this time
three times
these old lilacs
adding thir aroma
to the discussion
row of cherry trees
each one letting go
of a few blossoms
