Daniel's Poetry

Month: April 2013

Haiku XXX

Japanese forms

British Summer time:

“Widespread frost” says weatherman

– It’s not April fools’

Haiku XXIX

Japanese forms

Hidden shoot pierces

The cold armour of winter

To blossom in spring

Haiku XXVIII

Japanese forms

Much like two dry sticks

Haiku are hard to ignite

Though embers live long.

Haiku XXVII

Japanese forms

In winter’s shadow

Or in summer’s radiance

The bee knows its hive

Haiku XXVI

Japanese forms

The weather forecast

Is simply irrelevant.

Why? This is England!

Haiku XXV

Japanese forms

This is a small world

Our neighbours are abundant

And their grief, potent.

Haiku XXIV

Japanese forms

Critical caution:

Watch the news at your own risk;

Fear is digital.

Haiku XXIII

Japanese forms

If justice prevails

Or if the villains succeed

Time pays no respect.

Haiku XXII

Japanese forms

It’s arguable

But God’s greatest design is

The female bosom.

Haiku XXI

Japanese forms

Sinner by default,

Masterpiece in the making;

That is how Grace works

Haiku XX

Japanese forms

Fate – there’s no such thing,

Neither is coincidence,

Question everything.

Haiku XIX

Japanese forms

The Father absent

Who suffered more, chosen Son

Or the mother Mary?

Haiku XVIII

Japanese forms

University:

A place of knowledge, growth and

Internal conflict.

Haiku XVII

Japanese forms

Soaking in the rays

Eyelids – curtains to his soul

Closed in reflection.
