2022
mid january
in a stag’s antlers tangles
scent of early spring
lock down
over the hills
a wandering moon
zoo evening
a lion cub on a boulder
play fighting with the moon
chernobyl
still no man in sight
paradise returns
frosty night
even the stars
frozen
zazen
sky soars instead
one-legged seagull
in all circumstances
going with the flow
grass in the wind
acacia gum
who dares to mend
a broken heart
bamboo chime
by each wind stroke
a different rhythm
to be found
neither within, nor outside
the buddha
ripped apart
banner of blue canopy
razor storm
spring breeze
first baby toad jumps
out of full moon
walking the sky
star by star
brighter in each pace
storm over
un uprooted elm
hanging from clouds
first spring day
chill still lingers
from bud to bud
cold of war
a terrified elk chasing
the line of refugees
war rush hour
a limping soldier dragging
his shadow
approaching tanks
the full moon hiding
behind a wall
mark of war
even in the lake’s depth
ripples
Curling up
in heron pond
crescent moon
leaping
into the unknown
my inner warrior
liberty
my right
to be wrong
drizzle
a dusty road ends
into a new melody
tinder
endless swiping
river of stars
unrippled pond
dropping my line
in a day moon
after drought
the realm of rain
global blessing
digital society
the abused and neglected
inner child
rising moon
a dark side of my haiku
fills with light
along the wall crack climbing ivy
new course
taking the plunge
kingfisher
heat halts
the unbuttoned shirt
rainy sky
July night
in each bead of rain
colours of moon
ploughing moon
above the village of
retired farmers
july shower
2 kissers under an umbrella
one wetter
summer breeze
the fleeting caprice of
little daisy
hazy rain the faint gaze of july dawn
dry season
the heron lake
empty of itself
drought
darting daisies
one by one
thick clouds
the tumble of
drought
