Eight Haiku Poems by Samo Kreutz

 



HAIKU

 


red umbrella ...

how only her giggle

stays dry

 


wedding photo ...

between bride and groom

carnation scent

 


giant chestnut tree ...

how much has her son

blossomed

 


his fishing story

paused in silence

a breeze

 


scarlet wine ...

the way she

sighs

 


his old bones ...

that sudden urge to buy

Ferrari

 


dilapidated house ...

the faint smell of mum's

lullabies

 


tarp in the rain

my dad's words echo

how to stand tall
