I ... entered the poem of life, whose purpose is ... simply to witness the beauties of the world, to discover the many forms that love can take. (Barabara Blackman in 'Glass After Glass')

Late night and white noise: haiku and things for November 2007

2/11/07:

I'm hot. The creek's high.
My first swim of the season.
Ouch! Icy water.


9/11/07:

Over in Texas
my friend's dog has gone missing.
I hug my cats close.


16/11/07:

Late night and white noise
pouring from the computer
covers my loud thoughts.

I watch the World Clock
as the days keep going past.
Morning, night, morning.

From across the world
from inside a long silence
is a wolf howling?


23/11/07:

Already morning.
A night of peaceful silence
dreaming of haiku.


23/11/07

Tomorrow morning
may we wake from our long night
into bright new dawn!

(A reference to the Federal Elections in Australia. The dawn was bright!)
