Above The Lamps (a Haiku)
Up there in the clouds
Above artificial lamps
Sunlight blooms softly

That is what my master said
“Have you seen my coat?”

This months poetry assignment at Coffee House Writers is to read the traditional Japanese writer, Matsuo Basho’s 10 top Haiku, and then try to write a Traditional style Haiku. I think my Haiku here might get me a ‘pass’ for the assignment …
Her Last Rainbow (a Haiku)
Etched upon greyness
Behind fluffy nimbus clouds
Her last rainbow glowed

Copied from my article on “Go Do Go Cafe” this morning. >> http://godoggocafe.com/2023/03/17/throwback-friday-please-let-the-world-stay-green-a-haiku-by-ivor-steven/
A poem from St Patrick’s Day last year (2022), and here I am again today. Maybe another poem/haiku tomorrow … it’ll be a shortish piece … I’ll be extra tired … ☘
Please! Let The World Stay Green
Afternoon / evening
St Patrick’s Day at Murphy’s
Irish songs and cheers

To explore his patch
He happily trots away
He then prances back

Today we went to Geelong’s picturesque “Buckleys Falls River Reserve” for our morning walkies and I took several photos using my iPhone and wrote the Haiku, attached below, while relaxing and enjoying the beautiful scenery all around us.
The river bank walk towards the waterfall
The Barwon river below the cascade
The gentle cascade at Buckleys Falls, and the Historic Paper Mill in the background
The Barwon River Reserve Picnic area, where I wrote the poem, and Frankie enjoying his bushwalk outing.
