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')

As night falls: September haiku 2010

The kookaburra’s laugh —
loud, long and raucous but
too seldom heard.

********************

As night falls we hear
the chuck chuck
of an unknown bird.

4/9/10


I wake from a dream
of ocean
to the sound of rain.

10/9/10


the returning moon
once again
I dream of the dead

17/9/10


September rain.
The weeds on the lawn
grow clumpy.

25/9/10


gekko sounds
like a bird calling
in the dark
