Placid River [Haiku]

the river’s flow
doesn’t disturb the cloud’s
reflected drift.

Amid the Oaks [Haiku]

it’s cool & rainy, 
but the canopy is green:
last days of summer.

Rainy River [Haiku]

river ripples
roll downstream unwarped
by the flow.

Travelers [Haiku]

ducks & geese
cluster in a shallow stream:
layover lounge.

Bird at Work [Haiku]

flitting branch to branch,
seeking perfect seeds.
