“Soft Snow” by William Blake [w/ Audio]

I walked abroad in a snowy day:
I ask'd the soft snow with me to play:
She play'd & she melted in all her prime,
And the winter call'd it a dreadful crime.

The Big Drift [Haiku]

downriver drift;
ferries & fisherman cross
without collision.

Cave-Framed [Senryū]

my cave view:
fields and buildings;
what did cavemen see?

Land at Rest [Haiku]

the land rests
after the harvest;
birds feed on remnants.

Bone Cold [Haiku]

milky moonlight
pulls heat from bone:
winter night.

Silent Autumn [Haiku]

cows graze
amid rice stalks --
silently.

Foggy Morning [Senryū]

foggy morning:
a figure approaches...
nope, just a shrub!

River Drift [Haiku]

shapes shift on
metal waters until
darkness wins.
