Time for departures,
This world more lonesome each year:
My mother has died.
“As I reach for sleep
Raindrops smatter the rooftop
Soporifically
”
“Rain forest walking
Ferns unfurl crystaline green
New life amoung us
”
“Squatting by the road
Peeing under the moon light
What could be better
”
Time for departures,
This world more lonesome each year:
My mother has died.
Leaving my daughters
Each will trod her separate path
Dark night, shooting stars
(via Twitter / John Hicks)
Leaving my children
The sadness an old habit
Now hurts just the same
Ichetucknee springs
Sea cows in the river
Not one did we see
(Collaborative haiku by me, Ariel & Clifton)
