Haiku #37

Timorous birch tree
in the spring’s still morning air;
sturdier than me

Haiku #35

A mellow sun’s light
glints off the sheen of water;
the half Moon in sight

Copyright Francis 2021

Along the river
some weeping willows hanging
in morning’s shiver

Copyright Francis 2021

In a serene glide
mute swans push towards their food
on the riverside

Limp flags in the gloom;
fading flowers to be thrown
from the empty tomb
