A Spring Haiku

a riot of blossoms

celebration of new life

soon fluttering down

I walk by this tree regularly. It’s been daily during the lockdown. Spring is fully on. The blossoms lovely, temporary. Perhaps that’s part of their; their impermanence. So very Zen of me, I guess. 

Saturday Morning Haiku

wind chimes

early morning darkness

birds sing to my tea


Everyone else is asleep in my house. I’m very fond of these quiet moments. I hope all of you are safe and healthy. 

A Spring Afternoon

sunlight flows downwards
fir trees grasping towards the clouds
a gentle spring breeze

The Blue Sky Beckons

the blue sky beckons
one blossom reaches the sky
gravity ignored

This Afternoon’s Walk

More signs of springtime
As I walk in the sunlight
Birds’ discourse above

A Moment Outdoors

a moment outdoors
springtime’s flowers  greeting me
with social distance

Spring Moves Forward

spring moving forward
flowers carefree in the sun
bees ignore my gaze

Afternoon Flowers: A Haiku

springtime’s presence here
flower’s garish excesses
sunlight fights viri

The First Morning Of Spring

First morning of spring, 2020

first morning of spring
sunlight moving through the trees
tea warms my soul

Crocuses in Spring

Crocuses in spring

the warmth of daylight
crocuses heralding spring
now songbirds slumber
