Haiku #11 (NS)

The shaman’s spirit
abroad, deep in winter’s woods;
speaks in runic tongues

Haiku #10 (NS)

I am forced inside
like winter sap, waiting; long
nights in search of sleep

Copyright Francis 2021

Pausing for the view,
greenness is everywhere.
Solitary smile

Copyright Francis 2021

My soul’s prime journey,
flooded fen to woodland crag —
see where I have been

Nothing can stop it,
spring will come when it’s ready —
blue tit is calling
