Here are some Spring-themed haiku of my own doing. The syllable count is as far from perfect as the haiku themselves.
Pheasants dancing
right at my door
A spring waltz
Snow like feathers
falling one by one
from the blue sky
A tiny wind
shakes yesterday’s snow
from the pines
The New Moon
meets the Evening Star
behind the pine
Southerly wind
on the hard snow
makes pine seeds fly
The Sun’s ghost
barely visible
Fingers freeze
The Evening Star
shakes her veil of clouds
as I come home
Windy morning
Hawk chasing dove
Didn’t catch
The Sun peeks
from behind the clouds –
icicles dripping
A yellohammer
drinks from a puddle
of melted snow
Houseplants
cast funny shadows
in the April sun
Mind is bright
but windows are dusty
in the April sun
Futoi yatsu
