pent up and delusional

#345 – old friends
uneven laces
twenty year old jungle boots
in need of polish
rescued from closet’s corner
reviving, patient old friends

#227 -orange
orange and patient
garden gloves on the back porch
wait for weeding hands
watering can placed nearby
sitting askew, round bottom

#215- swoon
deadly midair dance
twilight beckons hunter
bat gives just one kiss
mosquitos soon surrender
thousands swoon and perish nightly

communion of souls
occurred inside the teepee
summer on the plains

#65 ~attack
screaming mother bird
sees me as the enemy
protecting baby
flightless fledgling hops in yard
mother dive bombs near my head

Hello world!
Welcome!
I have so enjoyed writing haiku during the month of April, on my blog http://www.15homegreenhome.com that I have decided to start a new blog solely devoted to poetry – this will be purely for my pleasure. I do not know if any of you in the blog world read haiku, but I have come to really appreciate the subtlety of the form and wish to explore it more. I will probably be importing some of my environmental poems from my other blog over here and will also be sharing some of my favorites. I am thinking of incorporating some form of charitable aspect to this blog and hope to share ideas about poetry, word choice and the like. So check back often !
Thanks
