Who needs a summer?
already the swifts’ shrill cries
fill gorgeous blue skies

Ever so slightly cool
Soft wind sweetly blows
gently soothing sun-soaked skin
it’s not yet summer

Bad timing
End-of-tunnel light
quashed by arrival of rain
allotment must wait

- I’ve been looking forward to finishing work all day today to be able to pop up to the allotment before cooking an evening meal. A badly timed shower has goofed up all my timings and my excitement. Tomorrow it will have to be.

Haiku 15 (reposted)

by Scooj
- 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.
