One year. Four seasons. Three lines.

Four Examples from a never ending passion project: depicting the flow of hours into days into seasons into years, expressed in haiku. Weather, encounters, moods, memories. A compressed synthesis of the human experiment. A challenge in seventeen syllables and three lines.

For daily haiku look here.



October, 10th

A little crumb of me
I bring out to the birds to prey
Oh I know this cruel beak


 



October, 11th

Watching the starlings
In pale morning's cold embrace
Still thinking of you


 



October, 12th                                                  

It may be unwise
To long for distant stars, yet
I do still love you




October, 13th

'Tis but a small bird
Landing by the seeds I spread
Why do I envy him?
