haiku

birdsong and bells

on the first Sunday

after the long drought

(AW, May 2025)

 

poem

more homeless

more cities ban

sleeping outside

and the homeless

fly from tree to tree

to have some rest and

something is wrong 

in these lines

(AW, May 2025)

 

poem

in poor cities

some litter 

is a bundle of cries

and even

when removed

there are still

echoes 

from these walls

with cracks

(AW, May 2025)

a too early summer

some are paddling 

on the canal

watering ban

another 

sword of Damocles

a relentless wind 

in a time of drought

clouds but no rain

the May sky

is fooling us
