Loaded Guns (a Tu-aiku*)
Sitting on the line,
observing daylight’s decline –
isn’t a hanging crime.
But innocent ones
are still being outgunned by
The world’s loaded guns.
*Tu-aiku – Ivor’s name for a Dual Haiku

A ‘Tu-aiku’ is my name for a Dual Haiku





Yellow Meadows (a Tu-aiku)
The summer meadows
Are a sun-bleached yellow
Under the iron sky
Twilight’s Midas touch
Lavished golden beams upon
Everything in sight

A Frozen Sundial (a Tu-aiku) my name for a Dual Haiku
Breathing in Iciles
Zero is not amusing
Frost covers my world
My sundial’s stopped
Beneath a sheet of white ice
Frozen within time
