The tree stays empty
No bird no breeze no glow worm
The soil looks morose  

Dense clouds have gathered
On and around the grey tree
Blooms are comatose

Getting rid of frost
Only last night it blossomed
Into a fountain

Alas, to no end
No bird from your shrubbery
Winter in my breath

Up and underneath
This load of cloud with no face
Restlessness for rain

No, no more moaning
For I know your eyes are there
If not now, later

None knows how and when
Your pink pigeons smile and fly
My flame is orange

A bird is building its nest
Hidden by shadows

HAIKU #1-14 (Taken from my files totaling 12,016 haiku, started in 2/9/06)



Ants red as wine                                      A black spider seem to own
dine on yellow nectar                                squatter's rights right on
from a juicy mango                                  our front porch.

Day of rain and                                         A quiet gentle breeze brought
zero visibility, then                                     thoughts of Belize and
pastel evening sky                                   New York's Hudson.

Morning draped in silk                                 Drenched from his walk
of white as we await snow                          a lone man sat basking on
and sleet and cold rain                             bench in sudden sunshine.

In dreariness of winter                               Driving home by night
my philodendron buds stands                      I fled the signal of a white
erect and frozen                                     hand hitchhiking.

Earth held in traction                                 In temp of one hundred
by glistening silver moon                             a black bird basked
full like a balloon                                      in my shadow.

Blond rabbit pregnant                                 In dark of night 
with spunk often visit and                           With full moon bright
side with the husband                                military copters all in a row.

A spider sleeps all day                                 In early morn my pen
then wake up and work                                poised like stillness of
at post twilight time                                  trees awaiting breeze.

Walking aimlessly
Suddenly a star entered 
A poem happened 

What was the poem
A cascade of golden light
On her hair and neck

How lovely you look
Said golden neck,the light said,
You are lovelier

The bird in my vein 
Said to both of them, good morn
They smiled, glint on Nile

SPRING IS IN THE AIR--

sunshiny springtime
a compassionate ant calls
enjoying the bee

for clean is the air
flowers florets everywhere
crisp and clean the smells

butterflies reaping
while beautiful, wild bird quarks
whilst lit on the rock

clean air everywhere
look at me enjoying spring
spring is in the air

passionate ant crawls;
cut grass smells watermelon
smells so brisk to me

butterflies eating
sucking nectar from flowers
spring is in the air

((** Natures Nurse **))

Hot temperatures
someone call the spring doctor
cold fertilizer


((** Early Bird **))

Fresh morning light
sweet SAP falling on my plate
Lego my Eggo


((** Desert Rose **))

In the dead of night
One star sings me a sad song
cactus feels my pain

((** Looks that kill **))

What else can I say?
Intrigue me with silence
look into my eyes


((** Home Sweet Home **))

End of road
my final destination
Next stop Olympus!

((** Heaven or Hell **)) 

Leave all dirt behind
Welcome mat above sunrise
running for the door

As child Shake 'N Bake
later on Kentucky fried
chicken bird of choice

 

          In the morning sun 
          When a bird flies gracefully 
          Of life's simple things

Strike! White Bird o'Prey
At flagged burrow wherein hides

We share a bond
You rejected bird hunting 
I rejected war

singing birds
eating bird seed
signs of spring

early morning peace...
mist hangs tranquil and serene
lone bird whistlling

BEAUTIFUL BIRD

Beautiful bird perched
on tree limb under moon's glow
elegantly dressed

GRAZING HORSES

Clouds rest on tree tops
lumpy feather beds billow
horses graze in snow

SILENT BIRD

Proud bird perched so high
silently viewing the world
We await his song

I BEHOLD A RAINBOW

Sun and humming birds
mingle while rainbows arch high
drawing eyes skyward

THE BATHER

Tiger baths his wounds
cold water soothes like medicine
he will fight again

RUNNING FREE

In him peace abides
Little fellow young and free
God's true gift to me

tiny baby bird 
mouth is constantly open
parents always feed

Deep within our soul we search
on that limb a bird does perch
the mysteries of our earth.

Black bird soars up high
Propelled by an unseen wind
Enveloped by clouds

     Baby Bird – Haiku

From the nest, a fall
Tumbling with few feathers down
Soft ground is a kiss

the wisp
of an old tune lost
in bird song 

                       VOICES OF SPRING


                        by nature driven
           some hidden wild bird finds voice
                         at crack of dawn


            day by day watching
                     watching tiny buds unfold
                                     to full blown image – spring


                          nature paints spring
                    she work in color and form
                         overlapping the frame


                   sunny sky
                                   cerulean blue
                                                      sunny mood



                                Dave Austin

 fall morn Brown Thrasher
visits empty bird feeder...
under millet grows 

the bird sings softly
the leaves dance so gracefully
becomes forever dream

mournful cries fill the air
mother bird calling for its baby
eaten by the cat

mantis catches butterfly
I am sad: yet, that is 
the way of nature

loud feathered thud
- flight into eternity
deceptive glass pane

the balcony

a bird tugs at my

clean shoestrings

a fluffy squirrel
flipping among tree branches—
empty bird feeder

A bird waits to die-
Red brick and grey concrete
are it's final rest

early bird special
red robins melcholy
beneath window sill


afternoon delight
a butterfly fluttering 
amidst garden floor


the evening deluxe
sun bids the day well ado 
hooting escalates


midnight  oasis
aqua velvet kisses - and
one dozen roses

strelitzias die -
shrunken birds of paradise
sag between green leaves


* It is now autumn in the Southern Hemisphere.
Strelitzia is a genus of five species of perennial plants, native to South Africa A common name of the genus is bird of paradise flower.

I hear the bird sing
It is so beautiful
i will sing along

#33

the moon falls west-ward
the tule fog saunters east
summer ends early


New Siblings

puppy petite gold
bouncing around black dog's space
I know you’re in love
 
#25

Swimming in spring fog
wind plucked guitar string in time 
Tule music plays

Fog

fog braised Fillmore
ready for full moon to wane 
while waiting for Jack

Dreams while Sleeping #2

when I piss in dark
All my prayers are sombreros
night of a new moon

Wake up Calls

first chirp of the morn
different from dog barking
five better than four

Midnight Ride

some full moon wheeling
search werewolves in the quag
Robin Hood’s fire

Unnecessary Student Loans

lifestyle to uphold
says I to financial aid
just give me the loan

English DeptBuilding

walk paper footsteps 
through hallowed hollow hallways 
already relics

Jesi Naomi

tuba bongo blues
like a freight train serenade
echoes in the night

New York Fall

tinged purple and red
nothing to rhyme with orange 
rolling New York hills

Gutter Glitter

lock jaw by myself
keep me imprisoned for hours
mumbling into phone

Danny West
 
it's raining outside
but I'm frying potatoes  
the all-night kitchen


Closing Time

staring at my beer 
one blue bird in the rafters
too it's closing time

Good Witch

She has rings and bows 
She has glasses full of hours
Honey from the bee

Words fail
Meaning blurry;
Nothing rhymes

Upstairs apartment
Renovation works;
Pneumatic floor blast

Not much meaning;
Bizarre thoughts

Suspicious assumptions;
Character flaws

Cursive scripts swirl;

Mid afternoon fare;
Lazy disposition

purple, orange

vibrant jungle flora --

     bird of paradise



*For Chris's Pseudo-Haiku contest

the scorpion
gathers her young on her back - 
a bird swoops 

a bird flies over
sings a beautiful song…
springtime evolves

national bird of 
Trinidad and Tobago
Caribbean Isle

the scarlet ibis
it is a tropical bird
bright red in color

it has a long neck
and it's bill is long and curved
feathers are black tipped

feet are slightly webbed
it's legs are long and skinny
with a wide wing span

beak is used to probe
in mud and shallow water
where it looks for food

you should see it fly
with its long neck extended
as if it's gliding

it's a good fighter
fights with beak legs and it's wings
protects its offspring

scarlet ibis is
one of the most beautiful 
of bird family

they're gregarious
rest in colonies in trees
they travel in flocks

united they are
we can learn a thing or two
from these awesome birds.

A bird escaped
From his cage
My heart free

oh what can I use
to the bird of my choice lure
the turkey vulture

THE AUSSIE WAY

large family yule
big bird on christmas table
ostrich with stuffed pouch

  

yellow mustard spills
across the green valley floor
black bird flaunts red wings

dainty daisy sings
welcoming elusive spring
and clouds forming rings

chicks peek from warm nests
mother bird tiredly rests
robin puffs its chest

meadow with blooms shine
man for his lost lover pine
on nature's soft shrine

gliding in updrafts-
   the bald eagle soars, mighty....
      billowing clouds hang,

   

graceful bird of prey
   falling with speed, the capture....
      homeward bound prestige 



nurtured chic's await-
   the aerie, perched above, safe....
      dreams of flight await

               CONTEST
   

Hung on bird table
Fat balls nuts rind and treats
Cheeky squirrel scoffs

nervous squirrel upon
the small rim of the bird bath...
fall breeze moves shadows


I wasn't seeing a squirrel but only shadow of Weeping Willow limb's almost nude being moved with the breeze...Funny but not..LOL
