haiku

start of autumn

even soft shoes pinch

on old feet

(AW, Sept 2026)

 

haiku

ragweed pollen

my body barks like

a dog in a yard

(AW, Sept 2026)

 

haiku

a Friday 

in September

with more wind than necessary 

(AW, Sept 2026)

 

haiku

the bell tower

the early autumn wind

brings nearness

(AW, Aug 2026)

 

haiku

this wind

a Sunday wind

it carries some autumn

(AW, Aug 2026)

 

poem

what are young parents

supposed to tell

their children now

when glaciers

can no longer stand it

there is no story 

about so helpful giants

available

(AW, Aug 2026)

 

haiku

shrubs

and this astonishing long

spider thread

(AW, Aug 2026)

 

haiku

the air 

has changed

summer is beaten

(AW, Aug 2026)
