luminous feathers
to deepest cornstalk, the grass
softens the hot sun
Over-Forty Body Haiku
even in good shoes
my achilles tendon aches
but I keep walking
Bright, Cold December Day Haiku
midafternoon slant
of light in the pale blue sky
vanilla and ice
Almost-Haiku: The Witches
three crab-apple sisters
standing close together
lichen on their dead branches
and on their live ones
tiny yellow fruit
Urban Wildlife Haiku
white-tail rabbiting
across the empty flagstone
into grass oasis
May 1 in Cambridge Haiku
red-winged blackbird trills
over the muddy meadow
jet roars overhead
Cold Boston Spring Haiku
brilliant red tree buds
bobbing in the April wind
lift my spirits up
Nineteen Degrees Haiku
a warm, yeasty smell
from the bakery hovers
in the cold, dry air
Mystery Panties Haiku
black pair of panties
lying on the trolley tracks
where did you come from?
Goldfinch Leavings Haiku
october’s reward
for tromping through the woods:
a golden feather
