a few Haikus

dark clouds fill the sky
rain wets trees and streets
people shop
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
wet cat hides behind the tree
teacher teaches
music breaks the silence and fills the world
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
dark green pine tree through the window
top branches reach to the sky
the rest spread in all directions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mountains peak through clouds
a fly wanders on the window
fresh music of birds
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Seagull stands on the electric pole
A Grey squirrel travels on the black wire
crispy new day
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Time stands still as she plucks those harp strings
Her fingers become time and space
Everybody listens
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the sound of chewing
a pen dances on a paper leaving a trace of writing
music breaks the silence barrier
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Teacher teaches
everyone listens
mount fuji on the stick
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
food boils in pots
the sound and smell of the ocean fills the air
beach cat appears with her love and beauty
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Raoul the greatest musician of all
his hands the scratch the beat the music the world
past present future me you and all is Raoul
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
silver red blue ocean
a couple of seagulls fighting in the air
laughs of women from far away
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
rosy cheeks bright eyes listen
roshi teaches
the couple melt in the music
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
perfect imperfection
a wise man teaches
Everything Everyone everytime shinzan
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a branch outside framed by a window on grey canvas
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Winds violently rock tree branches
Streets covered with a palette of leaves
A great symphony of chaos
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PLUM
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drops drip off the needles of a pine tree
wet dark mother's womb
winter makes its grand entrance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
days dark nights bright
Then the world became a crow
Colorful lights dance on the black road
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Children dance like popcorn kernels
The crazy river sweeps away logs and life
Collectively Fish go home to die
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Playing with colors
Rain falls down violently drowning the streets
The book speaks aloud
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
extreme ebb leaves a clean glossy beach as vast as the ocean
snakes curl lifeless on the sand
light leaks through a thousand holes in the sky dome
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
chunky stuff, spices and bubbles swim in the creamy hot soup
dizziying sax dancing drum joyful piano how groovy
jazz jazz jazz
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jazzy orange sun disk sinks behind the firey cotton candy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Frida laughs
Frida cries
Frida lives Frida dies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fields of colorful lights
making no difference
in a moonless cold night
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dark clouds
Cruel wind
Leaves race scratching the heart of the street
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
green red black and white
crunchy soft hot and cold
a glossy fresh fiesta in a bowl
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
blues in the morning blues at night
Blues dark and loud
blues intensely bright & light
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
