the weight
of being human
crushed dragonfly
new ice
whispers on the lake . . .
the afterlife
one year already . . .
flowers left in falling snow
for the boy lost
a long letter
from the new widow
hunger moon
winter trees . . .
the big grey area
between life and death
slow-falling snow
more Covid deaths this week
than last
I wrote this haiku a few years ago, referencing a poem by Basho, for a friend in Wyoming who, I just learned, passed away a couple weeks ago.
first day of spring
my friend and his horses
how are they now
wind in the wind chimes
early morning thoughts
of the afterlife
the sad news
carefully focusing
on the icy sidewalk
winter ducks
flying fast downriver
life is too short
