Haiku by Franjo Ordanić
1.
a field of dandelions
a dog and a hawk following
playfull lambs
2.
forest echoes –
a lumberjack trampling on
the field of irises
3.
sound of waves –
a seashell whispers
goodnight story
4.
summer drought –
only morning glory
grace my garden
5.
clear sky –
sparrows dust bath
raises a cloud
