Friday haiku 9

Back to the traditional form for this one. Enjoy.

Like a great beached whale,
Useless, inexplicable,
Comes inspiration

Friday haiku 8

Another Friday, another haiku for you.

Woodpecker swoops in
Seeds fly willy-nilly
A Junco’s delight

Friday haku 7

It’s that time again. As usual, respond in kind if you wish.

Like everyone else
by the time they reach Mexico
the North Wind has forgotten its task

Friday haiku 6

Today’s haiku is actually a tanka, just to see if you’re paying attention. As always, you can respond in haiku if you wish, or not in haiku, for that matter. Enjoy.

A cardinal, its fire
blazing red,
on the last green branch
summer hopes
frozen

Feel free to respond with haiku of your own in the comments.

Blossoms in winter
Like you
Hold their secrets
