Selected Haiku Sequence: A Year Of Solitude

to leave or to stay ...
the light and dark
of a spring wind

childhood summer ...
learning the language
of butterflies

ninth autumn...
facing the Pacific
I undress my thoughts

a winter sunset
over the Rocky Mountains
I am not myself

New Year's Eve
after the fireworks
a moonlit cobweb
