“Soft as the massacre of Suns” (1127) by Emily Dickinson [w/ Audio]

Soft as the massacre of Suns
By Evening's Sabres slain

Orange [Senryū]

lying on a hill,
eyes open to orange clouds:
how long was I out?

Encore [Haiku]

hidden sun
drops out of cloudbank
for an encore.

Seaside Sunset [Haiku]

red-hot steel glow:
sun crawls toward
wine-dark seas.

Desert Sunset [Haiku]

desert sunset
dips toward silhouetted dunes:
fade to black... then Stars!

Stork at Dusk [Haiku]

stands on a sunken branch:
dusky summer eve.

Is it sunset? Sunrise? Both? Neither? It was like this for an hour or so when I was in Finland during the Summer. Never getting fully dark.

Sky Fire [Haiku]

orange skies blaze, 
briefly but vibrantly,
people watch the fade.
