Ten Haiku Poems by Daniela Misso

 



HAIKU 

 

among the pines

butterflies in backlight . . . 

forgotten dreams

 

*

 

spring fever 

golden primroses 

peep out

 

*

 

expectations

at the start of a trip . . . 

poppies

 

*

 

photo album 

a lonely cricket 

starts chirping 

 

*

 

on my way home

bee's buzz 

in the shopping bag

 

*

 

cold april –

a mouse scratches

under the sink

 

*

 

going out the launderette . . .

drifting clouds

 

*

 

seedlings rise 

from the cotton wool

childhood memories 

 

*

 

healing . . . 

spring clouds 

expanse

 

*

 

crow-caw –

crossing the threshold 

of the taproom
