blue Arctic evening
at the end of the road
moon landing

sininen ilta
tien päähän laskeutuu

Haiku Collection / Kokoelma Vol. II
Collection of haiku, Vol. II
Kokoelma haikuja, Vol. II
This is a bonus post, a collection of my haiku.
Most of them have been published on Twitter by my tweeting presence @haikuinen. Feel free to follow me on Twitter. :)
angel of the spring
the first returning skylark
lands on melting snow
---
fresh cut basil
a Naples restaurant table
conjured up by smell
---
the sun peeks gently
low over the horizon
won't offend winter
---
swans gone for a day
yet they return without fail
mysterious ways
---
the magic of dawn
makes me a believer
in a round earth
---
freshly baked bread
eaten by sunny window
the doorbell rings
---
the sun tries to find
the frequency of summer
winter triumphs
---
rapid pace of life
just time to see each other
the buzzards' spring
---
the dark doves of soul
whitewashed by the morning sun
albatrosses glide
---
sun's warmth conjures up
scent of freshly fallen snow
wren's song approves
---
barn owl in the night
does not see its own feet
hears everything
---
still some swans remain
forty below in Lapland
the believers
---
walk in the woods
see the light come and go
fence with the sunset
---
the snowflakes descend
wearing an innocent look
kidnapped sunshine
---
the rain coming down
so hard the timbers shake
old oak floor
---
snail on a tin roof
even the lightest rain will
destroy the silence
---
January freeze
in need of an opponent
February?
---
tough, solid ice
its tensile strength destroyed
by mere warmth
---
last rays of the day
in need of a safe haven
land on my eyes
---
black and green
intertwine in the sky
stratospheric show
---
in their crowded nest
blackbird chicks twittering
is mum coming back?
---
everything done
the sun pulls the horizon
over its head
-----
Haiku are poems structured roughly thus:
three lines, first line five syllables, second line seven syllables
and third line five syllables. They usually deal with nature and (can) include
several different 'quirks' to make them... well... haiku!
