#499- trash?

orange on the sand

do I consider it trash?

or discarded snack

#498- famous haiku- Basho, Buson, Issa

in the sea-surf edge

mingling with bright small shells

bush-clover petals

~Basho

my two plum trees are

so gracious…see, they flower

one now, one later

~Buson

in city fields

contemplating cherry trees

strangers are like friends

~Issa

#497- flutter

lettuce leaves flutter

pink azalea branches wave

gentle spring breezes

#496- chime

out-of-doors at noon

church bells chime familiar song

neighbor sands new deck

#495

with unbridled zeal
nest building in the garage
brown birds gather twigs

#494- waiting

waiting on the porch

yowling now – just to be heard

old, deaf black she cat

late April evening

killing, hard freeze expected

pumpkin plants have died

#489- clarity

cold wind chills ball field

with winter -like clarity

huddled parents watch
