A Dog Day Ends [Haiku]

a dog day ends,
 pine needles silhouetted
  against orange sky.

Summer Sky [Haiku]

watching the sky,
 as i walk up the hill,
  i trip on a rock.

Silhouette World [Haiku]

summer dusk:
 our world is flat & black,
  while sky is textured.

Seasons [Free Verse]

I

I remember Spring:
   tight and tender buds,
   soon to blossom

clouds -- low & swollen, 
   & rain scent in the air
II

I remember Summers:
   the season of freedom...

and mosquitoes,
   but, also, fireflies

exploration &
   calamine lotion
III

I remember the Fall:
   harvest time

Grain chaff in the air
   axle grease on the wind

Canadian geese
   Honk-Honk-Honk-ing
   in wedge formation
IV

I remember winters:
   snow days

snow drifts

the feel of the first morning
    of the season in which
    one woke up to a blanketing snow,
    having gone to bed with 
    pathetic matted grass

Summer Seas [Haiku]

summer sunlight 
 sparkles on the sea;
  a boat rocks idly

Riverside [Haiku]

summer river:
dragonflies dart at the edge,
around thirsty shrubs

June Rains [Haiku]

house & garden
glisten from a soaking
of June rains

Nordic Summer [Kyōka]

nordic summer.
the wee hours look like either
sunrise or sunset
is upon us, and
either way, it's true
