Morning folks,
A couple of spring/summer haiku for consumption today…
Winnow
Geese skein winnowing
Across a low, scudding sky.
Thrumming, northwards-bound.
Worn
Summer putter of
River water gutter and
Foam on smooth worn rock.

Beautifully penned as usual My Friend.
I like them both, Matthew, but the second one really flows off the tongue–no pun intended.😊
Thanks David, and pun very much appreciated!
Excellent haiku!
Thanks so much!
You’re most welcome!🙂
These are lovely, as usual, Matthew.
Thanks Chris – always very much appreciated!
You’re such a natural in this form, Matthew. Always little gems.
Thanks so much. I find them the perfect mix of brevity, creativity and structure!
