Red Umbrella – 2 Haiku

twenty four hour rain
a red umbrella opens
steps out of doorway

twenty four hour rain
a red umbrella opened
beneath canopy

robin sits waiting
staring through kitchen window
expecting breadcrumbs

cheeky robin sits
staring through kitchen window
expecting breadcrumbs

P.S.

middle of downpour
wagtail peeks from under car
beats a quick retreat

P.S

sunshine and rainfall
leaves tumble with the west wind
morning's embers glow

P.S.

grey clouds pulled apart
almost celestial sunshine
sprinkled on low tide

P.S

rain upon rain and 
rain upon rain,upon rain
dampens the tired soul

low tide goes out,out
sunlight shimmers on rock pool
dalmatian trots by

on coastal pathway
black cat hides between the rocks
after storm venture

a windswept graveyard
 pleading statues look out, up
 guarding narrow path

sunny winter's day
cold Atlantic waves roll in
mystical silence

Rowan's red berries
dance to the wicked west wind's tune
sweeping rain unfurls

the rain's overture
taps lightly on the awning
sat in solitude

the morning dew fades
drops linger in the shadows
rising sun's slow climb

early morning dew
softens earth in flower tubs
a magpie's breakfast

P.S.
