Freestyle Haiku Sequence
.
hard spring frost…
birdsong greets the dawn
daffodils stand tall
.
transplanting seedlings...
contentment
in a low-tech world
.
dried mealworms
in a coconut shell…
robins return
.
digging compost…
entwined worms
recoil from sunlight
.
April birdsong…
the old gardener
turns off his radio
.
summer solstice…
sunflowers
worship the sun
.
gentle breeze…
fuchsias pirouette
like ballerinas
.
beneath the bird table…
a mouse scurries
to reap the spillage
.
the gardener’s
favourite jumper…
now with elbow pads
.
November days…
the colours of summer
just a memory
