haiku 1

1.
an infant, midnight
cries out, gloriously
tender urgency

2.
he picks up anger
to bed, a bitter sweet heart
to cuddle with

3.
a slim moon, new
drops her ancient garment
bright mystery rises

4.
lying perfect still
a flood of muted sounds
deafening my ear

5.
what am I doing
a bird stands on a lamp post
asking the star

6.
the sun rises
an unchanging prophecy
with certainty

7.
with its wings
thousand vibrations
a bird drums

8.
silent night frost
cooling winter pines
a colder thought

9.
radiant waves
travel through nightly air
stars appear

10.
close the blinds
darkness thick as blanket
securely sheltered

11.
a crow crows
suddenly darkness breaks into
a million pieces

12.
on the podium
baton dances up and down
beat the sounds

13.
the hugeness of thoughts
bursts through its tight seams
a drop of sigh

14.
pleasure demands
a labor of willingness from the heart
that lawless agent

15.
brows slowly knitted
into heavy thoughtfulness
a weighty look

16.
lemon tree laden
abundance of yellow gratitude
seasonal sunshine

17.
soft surrender
sunlight to dusky withdrawal
folding the evening

18.
a bee circling
a girl's presence on rose petals
after she smells it

19.
your innocence
in its nightly loud snore
irresistible

20.
in sun's open arms
the cat lies sweet and quiet
entertains no thoughts

21.
writing haiku
the Japanese English poem
thinking in Chinese

22.
frost gathers
all the last night dreams
in its white embrace

23.
the marching night
has chased daylight out of
a cat's eyes

24.
anguish of spring
bursts open all the buds of their
wintry impatience

25.
blooming pleasure
a rose petal brushes a breeze
losing her head

26.
a garden feast
all the birds and worms
come uninvited

27.
rest in love, clouds
lazily stretch in the sky
to east, and to west

28.
grapes on the vines
purple delights hanging heavy
waiting for the church bell

29.
innocent desires
in the gaze of a full moon
who will fall for it？

30.
a pure moment
weeping willow's shadow in the pond
washes her hair

31.
an empty quiet house
ghosts of poetic persuasion
brewing haiku tea

32.
an old blue plate
a fresh bunch of grapes rest
in regal purple

33.
a little ant running
dedicated to its aims
unknown to me

34.
the mouse escaped
after the trap snipped in vain
god bless it

35.
water pot whistles
a happy hissing enterprise
tea leaves paralyzed

36.
solid fresh onion
a daughter of the lily family
sisterhood of pungency

37.
lost in sleep
his heart wanders around
looking for a pillow

38.
peanut butter jar
being invaded every midnight
too creamy to yell

39.
sunlight screams
into dark corners of shadows
hardly audible

40.
no longer remember
silence is bald and tired
lost its voice
