just as light returns
a minute feels like sunrise
the day waits for hope

Haiku for a short Sunday
days of long shadows
trees standing guard in deep snow
light waits for solstice
Haiku for a Wednesday morning
Cut back the garden
dress the beds collect some seed
today will be warm
Haiku for a Tuesday morning
Always last to leave
she perches drinking her fill
many miles to fly
Haiku for Saturday morning
I stand in cool green
heart raging against evil
a prayer rises up

Haiku for Monday morning
the green wall is back
trees working hard through the night
birds seek their shelter
Haiku for a sunny Tuesday
he darts in and sips
she drinks at rest savoring
I welcome them back
A haiku for day 52
Small joy in bird song
Hold tight the reins of longing
Imagine us whole
Haiku for a sequestered Saturday
Plants starting from seed
Soil enriched by love
Summer will bring light
Haiku for a Thursday morning
Warmth in ersatz spring
Mountains tap their memories
There will be more snow
Haiku for a friend’s birthday
Walk the hills to home
Where love is found ripening
The true birthday gift
Haiku for a Hummingbird Thursday
And she was still here
Sipping nectar for her trip
End of summer gift
