Stony Clouds (a Haiku)

I have been busy today reloading my computer with my printers and scanner, then adding all the necessary apps that I use to organise to my poetry website …
Our spring weather was again atrocious today, but despite the appalling conditions we still managed to go out for our ‘walkies’ …
Images Below: in the right-hand photo, I am sure the big grey cloud was laughing at us, for being the only ones, crazy enough to brave nature’s fierce winds …





Stony Clouds (a Haiku)


The air turned stony

Gales tore in from the south pole

Grey veneered clouds laugh

Today Ran Away (a Haiku)


Why a noon so soon?

Eyes haven’t seen the sky today

Where has the moon gone?

Neon Blue




Neon Blue (a Haiku)


Our sky’s neon blue

The bright side of winter blue

Warming our toes too

Throwback Friday, Exposed (a Haiku)

Today I am presenting another poem that will be appearing in my new book “Until Eyes Hear Sound”. I wrote ‘Exposed’ in October 2020, and the Haiku will be the opening piece in the ‘Haiku’ section of Chapter 10 . Short Poems: Haiku, Senryu, Tanka, and Others.

Exposed (a Haiku)


Cold droplets of rain

Icicles stuck on bare skin

Hinged by winter wind
