Sunflowers & Amaranth [Senryū]

sunflowers look up
& follow the sun;
while amaranth bows.

Lush & Stony [Haiku]

stony ground:
lush grass grows
in every divot.

Lily Ring [Haiku]

ring of lily pads:
crowd around where the frog
plopped into pond.

Wistless Sway [Haiku]

bees on wildflowers
ride out the breezes,
in wistless sway.

Hardwood Clock [Haiku]

chartreuse Spring leaves
tick their way toward matching
the evergreens.

Heed the Grass [Senryū]

the lawn blossoms:
attracting minds that never
paid heed the grass.

After the Flood [Haiku]

after the flood,
a lake kills a grove
on its way out.

Drowned Dry [Haiku]

desiccated stalks
jut from standing water:
drowned dry.

The Gray [Haiku]

on a hilltop,
neighboring hill in clouds:
its dwellers in gray.
