Who can see the wind?
Yet in deference trees bend
Still you deny God

Wind waves through the grass
Breath from far Hesperides
Watching elements

Haiku: Oak Seeking
Oak-seers’ footsteps
hid by winter’s frozen shawl –
Whispers on cold winds

Haiku: Winter Tease
Birds hang on the breeze
from warmer western reaches
Winter’s way to tease

Haiku: Heart=Earth
Rearrange your heart
The earth whispering her name –
in freshening wind

Haiku #25
In the sparse garden
he toils with the heavy soil
and the cold east wind

Haiku #24
It’s windy outside,
tossing the full washing line;
dry by afternoon

Haiku #14
Winds batter the shore;
gulls, ever my companions.
Sand between my toes

Haiku #13 (NS)
The wind blows a gale;
I must fetch a sweeping brush.
Fresh air in the room

The Spinner
A web clings
with limpid fragility
to the fractured sapling,
timorous in air’s breath,
long left by the spinner
of autumn’s lair

Haiku: Moonless Night
Sorrow in the wind
A draft keeping me awake
This cold moonless night
