Ten Haiku Poems
snowstorm
all the trees
are birches
lenten rose
my son tells me
they are snowdrops
birds-eye veronica
reclining on the sky
to watch the clouds
suncups
a doe digs
for withered grass
the rabbit hears
the wing-snap of a falcon
blizzard warning
frozen ground
the squirrel unearths
the Hunger Moon
the crescent moon
lies in the jackrabbit warren
red fox
yellow black walnut leaves
will we ever be well again?
Yakima sun
filling my lungs
Ponderosa pine
Long Night Moon
listening
for his breath
