Haiku of Bamboo

Posted on June 17, 2020 by B Gourley

old bamboo
creaks, claps, and rattles
new bamboo…

once bats hung
on swaying bamboo
now cut down

clustered bamboo,
a dark hiding spot
on sunny days

flex like bamboo
and grow like bamboo —
be bamboo

Bamboo Haiku

bamboo copse
groans in subtle wind
no space between

crows rule

the bamboo arch

over the road

bamboo grove
carpeted in grainy beige
alien landscape

plastic cup

gripped in crow’s beak

frat boy style

pink blossoms
will soon bleed onto
bamboo pollen
