heatwave
my own sweat
stings
3/3/11
early autumn breeze
softening
early morning heat
6/3/11
tsunami
advancing across the screen
unfathomable
******
can turn off
the TV news, but not
the images
12/3/11
even the angels
tender-hearted
cry now for Japan
13/3/11
even after quakes
even after tsunamis
there are butterflies
14/3/11
After the hard day
and late night
at last my soft bed!
******
A cloudy morning.
I ask which way the wind blows.
Is it from Japan?
18/3/11
Elizabeth’s dead
the night sky very dark
and bright with stars
******
can’t die, is dead
just eight years older than me
marker of my life
******
absent now
who was always a presence
all my life
24/3/11
with autumn here
must my life force
start to fade?
(a response to some burgeoning-Spring haiku on facebook)
******
as my days dwindle
I fall into dreamtime
you spring, light, awake
