crescent moon lingers in the daylight burst of robin song #haiku #moon

Icebreaker, of the spring steam; a path cut, through floating petals. Mother duck, indefatigable; in her clear wake, the baby bobbles. Little feet, struggle to keep pace; yet soon they too, will blossom. #sijo

#haiku a cool rim of sweat on your upper lip

no room for dessert I feast my eyes on peonies #haiku #poetrycommunity

in a country where everyone's inhuman, I become a chair --Daisuke Kawai 人でなしばかりの国で椅子になる　　川合大祐 (Lit. "I become a chair in a country of only inhuman people" -- aka "brutes, beasts, monsters, wretches") #senryu #gendaisenryu #translation

green under the birch tiny flies with gold-wire wings spin out the sunlight

rain barrel— a wasp drinking the whole sky #haiku #poetry

let your mind observe the tiniest things, the most common, most benign - connect them with your soul by dedicating words to their pure, wondrous and astonishing grace. Find beauty. fold the world into three lines #poetry #threelines #haiku

already sweating before nine this morning -- but the new leaves on the live oak look red almost like blossoms ------ almost red as blossoms the live oak's new leaves #tanka and #monoku #haiku

Copied this #haiku into a document and I like the way it looks as a #mononku. Adding moonrise for a 17-syllable #AmericanSentence In the backyard on the last cool evening moonrise mockingbird and me www.actsofrevision.com/home/spotlig... (Note: English haiku need not be 17, but this form, yes.)

The wizard and the ex-paladin pack up the wizard's crates, say good-bye, and the wizard teleports home.

#haiku tumbling from the tree two jays harass the cat

out of a midday nap blue sky strained through silver mesh #haiku

grains of sand on parched earthworm #haiku

moonlit path~ her basket full of strange flowers #haiku

wet moss~ she kneels to gather roots #haiku

Dr. Sara Cleto and Dr. Brittany Warman have done remarkable work with their compendium of faefolk, "Fairylore." It is divine to see a thoroughly researched collection that not only details different folk, but addresses their role in story-telling and legends while also adding tales for each section…

delivery update~ the strawberry korilakkuma crossing another country #haiku

A pair of Great Tits are using one of the old nest boxes in the garden. Both birds are feeding the young, as one departs another arrives with food for the young. This video was captured at 19:15pm but the activity started at 5:30am this morning.

The Little Wanderer🏮 Art by Pauliina Hannuniemi.

I have learned tenderness from rain on foxglove, from the small green mercy of the moss on stone; yet in my soul, beyond the lamb-lit meadow, fury still runs, antlered and alone. #vss365

Mother and a host of tiny ducklings (Don't count them. Just enjoy). A raven alights on the One Oak And barks at the morning sky. A thrush peels off notes in triplicate Expansive, avant-garde. I listen with the untutored ears Of a school boy Taken to the Proms. #naturepoetry #birds #naturewriting

Driving in through the rain A blurr of red tail lights. The sea feels such A long way away. Does it even still exist? I could do with the scent Of seaweed and salt tang, The shriek of tern And to stretch my heart Along the ocean's edge Where I can wave and not drown #poetry(ofsorts) #alienation

sick day: fingerprints on the Kewpie --Shinko Tokizane 風邪の日のキューピーについた指紋よ　時実新子 風邪の日: lit. "day with a cold" #senryu #translation

The Autumn Day is Quiet Kamenosuke Ogata When evening comes, I feel my own face I feel the nose in the middle of my face Sitting on the bench in front of the fountain, I thought a lot about my fate 秋の日は静か 尾形亀之助 私は夕方になると自分の顔を感じる 顔のまん中に鼻を感じる 噴水の前のベンチに腰をかけて 私は自分の運命をいろいろ考へた #poem #translation

Danaë in the New World Off in the crouching mountains Coyotes bark. The stars are heavy in heaven, Too great for the sky to hold— What if they fell and shattered The earth with gold? ~ Sara Teasdale in my time I have sung to coyotes in the cool dusty air of desert nights 1/2
