17 Haiku

day moon
still so bright
my last dream

~o~

dandelion fluff
half blown away
my life

~o~

little linder
increasingly bare
don't you feel cold ?

~o~

to the mouth
dry leaves on the river
the only goal

~o~

winter fog
the root of the sky
so invisible

~o~

father’s absence ―
the bright white border
of a frozen leaf

~o~

arm in arm
on empty branches
a cloud

~o~

abracadabra...
daffodil sprouts
reborn

~o~

as if nothing
ever happened to us
red gerberas

~o~

stay here with me
I'll never hurt you
first butterfly

~o~

rose moon
in the pregnancy test
two pink lines

~o~

tiny poppy
the way she gives
her love to me

~o~

strawberry stains
rubbing a memory
out of my laundry

~o~

swallow’s flight
finally
my resilience

~o~

able to tell
an overwhelming love
heart-high corn

~o~

dew sparkle
she calls me “mamma”
for the first time

~o~

certain
that nothing is mine
clear skies
