One minute

 

I weep at my desk

as we stay silent; somehow

it seems not enough.

Lovers

 

In the Autumn shade

a young couple share kisses;

in oblivion.

She loves him, it’s true,

though her dark purpose prevents

an eternal love.

  • One of a pair of haiku, to be read with Peacock. The inspiration came from two mysterious cards stuck to a wall in Ward Street, Bristol.
  • This haiku is heavily influenced by the magnificent and mischievous Poet Rummager and her ‘Hungry Love‘ haiku, with thanks.

He loves her so much,

his proclamation is clear

for all to witness.

Love song

 

Miss Joan Hunter Dunn

I love you more than J.B.

could have imagined.

 

by Scooj

 

With thanks to, and total admiration for John Betjeman and A Subalterns Love Song

Love you

An untold story;

a gift of love? or maybe

an apology.

A bicycle I saw exactly a year ago on a street in Bristol.
