calling home —
the color of mother’s voice
before her words
hillside cemetery
all gravestones
face the view………………….. Hilary Tann – The Heron’s Nest (December 2007), here and there
the hooked fish’s
last gasp . . .
its eye on me
exchanging pleasantries
while hammering
crab shells
………………………… George Swede – The Heron’s Nest (December 2007), here and there
moonless night —
our neighbor’s telephone
rings and rings
……………………. Billie Wilson – The Heron’s Nest (December 2007), here
water colors
I paint the spaces
between waves………………………….. Carolyn Hall – The Heron’s Nest (December 2007), here
encore:
frost moon
pairing his wool socks
warm from the dryer
…. by Carolyn Hall – from The Heron’s Nest (Jan. 2001)
surf’s edge
the shape of wind
in her hair………………….. Yu Chang – – The Heron’s Nest (December 2007), here
Reminder: Not yet filled with holiday joy? Don’t forget the f/k/a Christmas Season Haiku Page.
furious –
that godless salesgirl said
“Happy Holidays!”
[for Steve Bainbridge]
setting up the creche —
the Baby’s name
uttered over and over
