Haiku1

first day of spring -
hummingbirds at the feeder
on the eleventh floor


                                              walking on needles
                                              in the pine forest -
                                              your silence


witch doctor
outside her door
the deepening darkness


                                              along the fence
                                              afternoon shadows lengthen
                                              the horses


after all these years
the pear tree giving pears
for the neighbors


                                              evening shadows
                                              tadpoles
                                              in the fountain

sudden wind
egrets at the creek
turning whiter


                                              parting clouds
                                              the lillies turn
                                              a different white
