Haiku – Darken

seagulls racing round
round round the water tower;
bay is darkening

Colin Myles

some blackbirds and jays
flit around an old oak tree;
ritual of sorts

Colin Myles

misty drizzle sweeps
over the city centre;
steaming coffee mug

Colin Myles

walk around old town
sign for closed down nightclub;
place we used to dance

Colin Myles

winter evening;
sprinkling of fading red clouds
across horizon

Colin Myles

dying in the vase
rose bud bloomed and faded;
how quick life crumbles

Colin Myles

on a Sunday stroll
hidden down an avenue;
mortuary chapel

Colin Myles

peeking through the clouds;
pinprick of sunlight trying
to warm up a rock

Colin Myles

misty drizzle falls
slant wise in from the east;
hang coat beside fire

Colin Myles

Sunday morning craft fair
hand carved items from factory;
artisan oxymoron

Colin Myles
