some of my haikus.
strange dreams lie ashore
touched me, hurt me, woke me up -
the sea never slept.
-
against the mad hope -
freedom's like a bonsai tree
cut to look better.
-
birds avoid the smoke -
but the chimney seems happy
stuck to his place
-
morning smallness scents,
and sings such little tunes -
lonely joys surface.
-
evil men watching
whenever good arises -
so rise in darkness.
-
strange incidents
betting high without need
drinking twilight.
-
adversity
best polisher of swords -
sheathed in lazy hearts
-
slowly rising day -
hung on a rope and pulled up
like a sick giant
-
she's still so pretty
her face glows kindness -
she has a son
-
such a slow waking
sighing up the first flowers -
spring's eyes opening
-
silence is my friend
a mute singer
with beautiful eyes
-
mind into water
heart into soft diamonds
life into goodness
-
honest smiles flutter
like a dove up to the roofs
then she smiles back.
-
a careless laughter
ringing through the air -
young like morning clouds.
-
time and sweet life
soul's cooking of its foods
oh precious peace!
-
tongues of morning taste
and between the jaws of life
a strange waking up
-
I try hard to be
but more often than not
I just am
