lake shimmer;
Spring sneaks in early --
trees still bare.

Still Waters [Haiku]
Winter morn:
still waters reflect each twig
of bare trees.

“Mulberry Picking” [採桑子] by Ouyang Xiu [w/ Audio]
West Lake is beautiful from a small boat.
Green water wends its way through the lotus,
Sweet grass grows thickly all along the bank,
Faint music wafts from unknown points ashore.
When the wind quits, the Lake is glassy smooth;
The boat is perfectly still for a beat,
Then its movement is betrayed by ripples
And startled waterfowls' furious flapping.
Note: The title “Gathering Mulberry Leaves” was used by Xu Yuanchong for his translation. The Chinese title is: 採桑子 (Cǎi Sāngzǐ)

Faux Ice [Haiku]
the low morning sun
burns through gray clouds; the
still lake looks iced over

Snowy Mountains [Haiku]
across the lake,
the snowy mountains stand
in denial of Spring.

One Fish [Haiku]
solitary fish
darts about at lake's edge:
taunting fates & fishers.
