bit like life really

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

in green glass bottle
flower cutting from garden;

Twilight – 3 Haiku
it’s almost nightfall
twilight just slipping away
hedgerows in silence
it’s almost nightfall
twilight just slipping away
hedgerows are silent
it’s almost nightfall
twilight just slipping away
three islands in view
P.S.
Don’t forget you can read my haiku collection ” Catch the Silence ” on Wattpad for Free
FOG . . . 3 Haiku
the drab grey mizzle
descends upon unseen bay
two crows chatter on
a thick pea-souper
can’t see pathway to shoreline
carry in firewood
hidden midday sun
attempts to burn morning mist
tranquil bay asleep

Robin in the Mist – 2 Haiku
Yesterday, the mist and drizzle was sweeping in off the Atlantic. Just after switching on the coffee percolator, I glanced out the kitchen window. There in a tiny hole in the hedge was a robin sheltering from the nasty weather. From my mind came these two haiku.
- wind whips across bay / robin shelters in hedgerow / window to nature
2. the sweeping mizzle / robin shelters in hedgerow / watch his sereneness
Thank you for reading

5 Haiku
- warm autumn drizzle / coats the freshly mown green lawn/ jackdaws out lunching
- waxing crescent moon/ hangs by heaven’s hidden thread/ illuminates bay
- waxing crescent moon/hanging over the rooftops/ dishes drying on rack
- roaring river runs/ beneath the city’s four bridges/ tourists take photos
- overcast morning/ terrier sniffs in garden/ cocks a leg stakes claim
Thank you for reading.
