Photo-haiku by Lavana Kray
widow’s birthday –
no one but the wind brings
wild cherry flowers
five o’clock tea –
my shadow goes
to the neighbour’s yard
broken swing
end
of summer
I lie
you lie –
equinox
his chilly talk…
I look for
another kigo
military camp –
shooting buds among
discarded shells
crush of birds
on the frozen fence –
cancelled flights
gun shots –
embraced birds
staring at my eyes
love postcard
for my birthday –
your plastic words
young orchard
turning white overnight –
an old man falling…in love
