Defiantly (a Haiku)



Defiantly (a Haiku)


Sunflowers do bloom

Through the war of destruction

Bravely defiant

To Blush Alone (a Haiku)


Embarrassingly

Crimson roses stand alone

Under the hot sun

The Core

Today I wrote a Senryu and a Haiku, and they were both about the ‘nature’ of existence, so I thought I could present them here as the one poem … I think my idea worked ok.

The Core (a Poem)


The Core (a Senryu)


Existence crawls down

Through my neck into the heart

Of where my soul lies



The Core (a Haiku)


Through the winds of time

Existence descends from trees

Perpetually

A Sweaty Hat Day (a Haiku)





A Sweaty Hat Day (a Haiku)



A hot summer sky

Above brown thirsty paddocks

Sweat drips off my hat

A walk back in time 

Along cobblestone pathways 

And rustic cafes

Cloudless and Clueless, a Haiku

The clear blue skys of summer seem to be inspiring my writings lately ...



Cloudless and Clueless, a Haiku




Beyond vacant sky

Infinity outlives time

Why does greed survive?

Could the stars be right

That life is almost perfect

Tonight’s moon agrees

One Land (a Haiku)

One of best Haiku, according to some of my fellow poets here in Geelong, which I penned in June 2020

One Land (a Haiku) Tullawalla, page 119



Upon our torn earth

Let’s sit around the camp fire

One circle of sand
