  • One of my Early Haiku poems from May 2015 – I was thinking about looking forward to spring, but was uninspired (it must be the rain), so I dug this one out from the archive. Only those of you who became WordPress friends back in the early days will remember this one, so I felt it was worth sharing again.

though Winter’s business is yet

incomplete, undone.

Warmer breeze wakens

untouched by human labours

delicate bluebells.

Imaginings

 

My ears deceived me?

I swear I heard the shrill cries

of swifts overhead.

Once proud mistletoe

merges with emergent leaves

longing for Christmas.
