waiting on the porch

yowling now – just to be heard

old, deaf black she cat

#474 – echoes

echoes of winter

fierce, cold winds batter the house

spring not quite entrenched

#442 – Famous spring haiku

The spring night-

in a dawn of cherry blossoms

it ended

~Basho

Spring too, very soon!
They are setting the scene for it —
plum tree and moon

~Basho

Under the image of Buddha
All these spring flowers
Seem a little tiresome.

~Basho

frigid spring evening

he makes a nest beside me

wind rattles windows

#418 – silent

fabric of the quilt

whirring sound of forced air heat

silent bedroom scenes

#395- before

before the sun sets

blues and purples fill the sky

encircling black trees

#390 – frozen

below zero night

long overdue fly, frozen

dead on windowsill
