Haiku

summer's end

remembering the wish

made with the red star



elizabeth

always the young queen

in my wallet



in aussieland

with a baby kangaroo

in my bossom



in aussieland

a baby kangaroo

hangs on to me



land of senryu

the mist lifts

to show a clown



land of senryu

the mist lifts

to show a comedian



still so single

he crashes another apple

to remember this summer



first day of autumn -

the longing to buy

a new shirt

  ....



American homeless

the privilege of sleeping

like the other half of world



counting  

the blessings

another national day



slained orang utans

tourists chip in

condolence at hotel



yam field

sparkling droplets jumping

from leaf to leaf



the wave lifts itself

and rushes in, like a woman

running in her blouse



her big zircon ring

the anxiety when new friend

says he is a jeweler

  

US now realises

the real Iraqi problem -

a power struggle cauldron



in troubled water

looking into dark river

his scowled face



yesteryears' pastors -

the congregation passes

by slanted white crosses



child asks to join

granny in watering plant

her laughter when he pees



beach

little crabs

always running for cover



heard - late grandmom's

jealousies - row and row

of broken crockeries



the last time mars came

we were hardly monkey

now it's just a telescope away



still waiting for the

gadget to read all naughty

vibrations



muddy pond

the child throws in his bait

a loud splash



autumn chiba

a small basket of persimmons

only 150 yen



;



wilted rose

blown away

a burst
