This solstice weekend has seen a myriad of weather fronts. From glorious sunshine to the four winds howling and galloping breakers, followed by relentless rain sweeping in from the Atlantic and back again to sunshine. Here are five haiku it inspired.
blustery morning
the four winds howl around house
hear the eaves crack, squeak
the four winds howl, howl
kicking up swirling sandstorm
three heavy raindrops
on summer solstice
sweeping rain falls with vengeance
Dylan’s rowdy ways
wild west wind charging
quick heavy downpour ensues
galloping breakers
the mighty sea roars
unleashing angry breakers
pounding pier wall
P.S.
don’t forget you can read my new haiku collection “Catch the Silence ” for free on Wattpad

plankton swirling round
beneath the pellucid sea
soft breeze turns the page
graffiti of love
adorning the old wooden door
afternoon amble
tide is fully out
seagulls wade through pier’s gunk
petrol and seaweed

down the narrow path
along the rocky coast walk
Northern Bedstraw blooms
rotting boat on rocks
prayers of returning safe
long time forgotten

hands on steering wheel
staring at the breaking blue
just thoughts of respair
P.S.
respair ; is an old English word meaning … a recovery and a return to hope
