Haiku-a-day
A sun setting low in the sky behind a bare forest in late winter.

The late Sunday light
falls in these confiding woods,
making blue shadows.

Haiku-a-day
A starling flying against a blue sky above a snowy pine tree.

A starling floats in
biting February wind,
surveying the grid.

Long blue shadows on a frozen lake surrounded by forest.

This time of bad news,
our walking lake is frozen,
drawn with blue shadows.

Three Trimpeter swans float in a line at a river's edge in winter.

Along the river
our steps are matched by these three
silent winter swans.

A frozen creek in winter with late day light.

For Jerry

This time of bad news,
the creek takes another form
in the fading light.

Two white-tailed deer stand in a thicket in winter.

This time of bad news,
white-tailed deer stick together,
wait for us to pass.

Haiku-a-day
Bare forest trees with late-day blue shadows on the snow under a low sun.

At home in these woods —
the late day, blue-shadowed snow
displaces worry.

Haiku-a-day
Tree shadows on the snow under sun.

In these frail shadows
birds congregate and chatter
in my mother’s yard.

A handsome black and white dog in a snowy forest with perfect snowflakes on his nose and head.

The perfect snowflake
on my dog’s black fur eye patch —
the endless forests.

Animal foorprints on the snow on a frozen river.

Still and Sunday-like,
ice locks parts of the river,
animals walk it.

Animal foorprints on the snow on a frozen river.

The moon replaced Mars
in the cold overnight sky —
silence with silence.

Haiku-a-day
A mature forest dusted with light snow.

Like buoyant notes found
with the greatest tenderness,
each tree snow-dusted.

A black streetlamp by a thicket of trees in the dark of morning with snow falling.

Up with the streetlamp,
lighting the morning snowflakes
like an aurora.

Haiku-a-day
Melting ice and snow forming pools on the forest floor with a moss covered log in it.

Sun wakes winter moss,
ice that will become spring pools
melts and reflects sky.
