Under the Basho, 2019

Personal Best


bioluminescence
I skip a pebble across
the universe

1st Place, 2019 OtherWordly Intergalactic Haiku Competition
(first publication in Seashores, Volume 2, April 2019)


Hokku


moonless
maple leaves ignite
the dusk


fields thronged
with sandhill cranes . . .
corn moon


bugling elk
fog softens the shape
of morning


the curve
of a dune's shadow . . .
day moon


Modern Haiku


rivulets of rain . . .
I trace the shape
of loneliness


veils of dust . . .
at least we have
this sunset
