Haiku from Nature

Orion running
Perpetually as light
In the morning sky

<><><><><><><><><><><><><> 10/01/07

Rain drops from the sky
Air refreshed by water
Cleansing inhaling

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>10/15/07

Dandelion blossom
We want green spring garden plant
Flower leaf dawning

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>12/25/07

Though rust falls in the
Autumn summer will journey
Through morning bloom

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>12/25/07

Happy people dream
Shiver beneath winter moon
Snow soon freezes ice

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>12/25/07

Tulip stuck in time
Its potential blossom gone
Unseen forever

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>01/04/08

Water on a shore
Ice in solid formula
Amorphously cold

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>01/14/08

A hovering kite
Attentive to the motion
Field mouse lingering

[east of Winters, California]

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>01/16/08

Orion arise
Beloved in the night skies
Running running on

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>01/16/08

Little lonely
Thought of brilliant night sky
Alone in star light

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>01/16/08

Autumn grasses yellow
Wander beneath rusted cloud
Rising evening moon

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>01/19/08

Blue sky the trees say
The wind resting is breathing
God less manifest

The breathe of God
Flows through creation as wind
Flowing over all

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>01/30/08 9:00 a.m.

Make me smile before
The bloom of summer morning
Full from sun journey

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>02/10/08

An angel of stone
Sits praying in the night rain
Blessings on flowers

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>02/21/08

Standing by a creek
Sound blends with nighttime musing
Cares flow to the sea

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>02/21/08

Baby ducks snoring
Under a bridge in the fog
Tiny signs of spring

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>03/19/08

A simple beauty
Egrets flying together
beautiful sky now

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>03/25/08

The young tree sprouting
Blue skies in Santa Rosa
California

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>04/05/08

The Blossoms turning
Spring bees buzz in Sonoma
California

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>04/05/08

Swollen blossoms wait
Spring is in the air today
White flowers burst soon

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>04/07/08

Happy Spring flowers
Green with pink yellow blossom
Fresh colors of life

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>05/03/08

Summer blazing in
Heat searing on the faint wind
While spring’s blossoms wilt

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>05/15/08

Smooth paddles of light
Cause ripples in time and space
Shadows linger on

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>5/22/08

Cicada in the
Palo Verde mimicking
Arid summer heat
<><><><><><><><><><><><><>06/23/08
Pungent smell of smoke
lingering from lightening
drift of summer fire

<><><><><><><><><><><><><> 6/23/08

Can’t hear that teardrop
For all we know it’s just a
Ripple on a stream.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>07/14/08

Poppies drying out
Fields of parched brown grasses
Season of summer

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>7/15/08

A bird on the fence
Quickly scanning a yellow
Flower then moves on

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>07/21/08

A caterpillar
Amongst the green tomatoes
Takes an early share

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>07/21/08

Moths migrating in
The early morning sunlight
Transient nature

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>   7/26/08

The fog enshrouds the light
Mists envelope days passing
Time moves over love

All I get from you
A place for me in your heart
Where I want to be

Time moves over love
Mists of our time in this light
This morning’s true gift

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>10/08/08

Sheep sleeping in fog
Fields of mist veil their slumber
What things do they count?

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>11/04/08

Crisp fall air blowing
Light shining in lovely trees
It is great alive

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>11/11/08

As the sun it shone
Upon the vines grapes all gone
Shadows left alone

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>11/21/08

Saline Sea shines blue
under the desert’s hot sun
after man’s mistake

Toxic Acidic Beautiy

<><><><><><><><><><><><><> 12/12/08

Young hawks shrill calling
Brighten a sunny spring day
Like children who smile

<><><><><><><><><><><><><> 5/8/09

Pigeon flying by
There is a dream like quality
Wake me in the air.

Pigeons Fly Low

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>05/17/09

The wind through the pines
And the cottonwood snow
Warmth of Tahoe sun.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><>  07/05/09
