A short one...

Summer Haiku

a night piano

the full moon behind a cloud –

solstice complement

Write with Me

Here's another shot at Haiku. Which ending do you like? Got one of your own?

Haiku with Three Endings

Clear, warm evening,

stars overhead poke the night –

the owl lifts her wings

my feet shuffle home

a train’s long whistle

Veronica

Missed a poem last night. Stayed up very late with an old, good friend. Was worth it. Tired tonight, but Veronica suggested a Haiku. "They're short," she said, implying that as a poet, I must write them easily and well. In fact, I have never even attempted writing a Haiku. Until tonight. After much-researched time into what exactly a Haiku was and what one should attempt to put into one, here's my first stab at it:

Currant abundance –

Woman of autumn past smiles

lies near me asleep.
