Irish
O to be Irish
Wild on wings of a story
Living in the rain
Sonorous
a monk chants the psalm
sonorous from temple’s drum —
cherry blossoms fall
Perhaps
perhaps an earthquake —
a butterfly tastes the wind
jellyfish abide
Reinvigorate
Jumping spider down
yearns to reinvigorate
a rain drop reflects
Stock
stock grazing grassland
cow pats baking, sun blazing
dung beetle rolls ball
Rein
a wild horse hungry
prickly pear cactus beyond –
the rein of winter
Charm
Charm defeated me
shut off tap of syllables –
staring at the moon
Tear
crocodile tear –
rolled from eyes beseeching trust
lubricating spring
PURPOSE
porcupine purpose
puncturing beaks in springtime
a horned owl retreats
Strawberry
strawberries are ripe
mingled with black blueberries
healthy start today
Blackberries
blackberries fattening
thorns sharpening, raindrops abound.
nettles fit to sting
Mellow
mellow after tea
freesias and peonies fade
into the moonlight
Contrarian
contrarian breeze
undermines Irish heatwave
dandelions in flight
Savant
a savant alert
person of the forest smart
orangutan smiles
Elgar the owl 😊
owl on frosty branch
hoots variations through time
an enigma stares
Guru
sunrise clears the dark
guru enlightening day
obscurity fades
Primordial
dandelion in gale
a primordial nightmare
seeding the landscape
Haiku
Katana blade – slash
Warrior falls – soil is red –
Blowflies approaching
Haiku
pitter patter rain
drops on glass of the window
reflects on my self
From Bath to Cork with baby Grace
