Old Crow and the Moon (a Haiku)
The white moon hangs low
In the blue afternoon sky
Old crow stands alone
Ivor Steven (c) October 2022
The three Haiku that make up this one poem, originate from three different sources.
The first stanza/haiku was inspired by Jez’s Haiku

The second stanza/haiku was inspired by Bartholomew’s Fraiku
>> https://bartbarkerpoet.com/2022/09/30/fraiku-follow-the-money/
The third stanza/haiku is a haiku I created for this post
Echoes (3 Haiku)
Some human critters
Can be thoughtless litterers
Nature’s enemies
Co-operate greed
Unlimited boundaries
Without compassion
An unknown poet
Scrawls on recycled paper
Words become echoes
Ivor Steven (c) October 2022
Slow Motion (a Haiku)
Spring grass, lush and green
Yellow flowerbeds abound
Butterflies slow down

In Your Time (a Hiaku)
You can’t fly pass time
Travel with time, hand in hand
Time is not faceless
Ivor Steven (c) September 2022
A haiku I wrote while I was visiting my cousins and their families in Philadelphia back in May 2019 … For me, “a dream of the heart that came true”
Field of Dreams (a Haiku)
Life is sweet and smooth
Eating strawberries and cream
Full of tasty dreams
Ivor Steven (c) 15th May 2019

Our Weeping Forest (a Haiku)
Who is listening?
Within the weeping forest
On the edge of time

Another repost while I am laying down with my sore back … written when I had my third stroke, and I was laying in hospital 31st January 2019 …
Apologies to my readers and followers for not blogging and responding to your articles with my usual zest, my debilitating back pain doesn’t allow me to sit at my computer … hopefully the situation will improve soon.
Wall of Thorns (a Haiku)
My bed of roses
Is scaling a wall of thorns
Perpetually
Ivor Steven (c) 2019
With thank thanks to Colleen Brown and her inspiring article >>

Night Falls (a Haiku)
Daytime eyes do tire
Upon the land, night did fall
On the dreams of all
Ivor Steven © July 2022
Waters flow on by
We steadfastly wonder why
We’re left high and dry
Ivor Steven (c) June 2022
A cloudless blue sky
Sunlight kisses everything
Feeling hope within
