Daisy

 

A single daisy

awakens deep memories

of carefree childhood.

Tatties

 

Laying potatoes

out to chit; ready to plant

on St Patrick’s day.

Tautological scam

 

Cold callers selling

a service to prevent cold

callers rom calling

Transition

 

Delicate whisper

of Autumn’s steady advance

time to button up.

One of my early haiku which I still rather like. I am mindful of it as we transition from Winter into Spring. First published on 5 September 2015.

Spinning plates

 

Too much on my mind,

balancing priorities;

something needs to give.

Soul searching

 

I left it behind

now I am looking for it;

searching for my soul.

Inspired

 

…then I picked up a

Cousteau book and remembered

my inspiration.

In response to my own haiku ‘Gloom’

Gloom

 

These constant grey skies

suck away every ounce

of inspiration.

Hubbub

 

Crows on College Green

caw amidst the roar of the

City-bound busses.

 

by Scooj

Winter still

.

How the blossom lies

with its smallest hint of Spring

tricking and teasing.
