michigan houseguest
shows the city through new eyes
sailboats on the charles
April 8 Haiku: Lupine
lupine’s tiny hands
traveled through the ice and snow
did they bring flowers?
April 7 Haiku: Snowdrifts
soiled old snowdrifts lurk
shrinking daily under sun
remaindered, warning
April 6 Haiku: Daylight Increasing
dark blue sky at eight
translucent remains of day
behind puffy clouds
April 5 Haiku: Working Late
day flows into night
extra chill on the keyboard
what waits outside?
sliver of new moon
rising above the highway
april chills your neck
April 4 Haiku: Rising in Rain
clothed in sleep you rise
angry rain spits at the pane
surprisingly warm
April 1 Haiku: The Cruellest Month
still the cruellest month:
bare-bones hills and chilly winds
merciless sunshine
Solstice Haiku
sun shines on first snow
bright from the dramatic sky
winter blue, pine green
December Haiku
cold earth longing for
a warming blanket of snow
frozen moss, still green
November Haiku: Yellow Leaves on the Ground
leaves against grey sky
winter’s chill but still yellow
carpeting the ground
standing on sunshine
while all around you winter
winches tight its grip
