#466 – because I love Issa

As the great old trees
are marked for felling, the birds
build their new spring nests

A flowering plum
and a nightingale’s love song
he remains alone

#461 – uncommon

worn smooth by time, waves

shards of glass and pottery

battered, uncommon

#459 – Basho – famous spring haiku

April’s air stirs in

willow- leaves…a butterfly

floats and balances

White cloud of mist

above white cherry blossoms

dawn shining mountains
