those distant high peaks
they bring me such precious dreams —
all shrouded in mist

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

these mountains inside
their inaccessible peaks
flowing meltwater

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

in windmill turbines
the loneliness of lost friends
still passing on through

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

waking winter trees
gently rock their deep damp roots
in the waning wind

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

seedlings under the hoe
its sharp blade slicing through
the fresh hope of spring

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

dandelion burst
under the blackthorn blossom
and these thoughts of you

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

the hare and the hatter
even now — still waging war
in wonderland

while people here we talk of peace
and wonder why — these wars never cease

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

still not writing haiku
the soft wind blows the red clouds
but the haiku are still

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

Nirvana on toast
and again bees buzz about
in early blossom

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

this still evening air
wild rose thorns drip their dew drops
under the full moon

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

on the tranquil pond
a heron poised in thought —
not a breath of air

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#haiku #senryu #tanka

fresh laid frogspawn
glistens in the spring sunshine
tiny buds of being

#DailyHaikuPrompt

Thanks Kai, it's kind of you to comment, much appreciated.

this lengthening light
reaps our slowly growing days
tight buds waiting — still

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#haiku #senryu #tanka

in this fragile space
between breath and a heartbeat,
lies the mirage of life

the hot humid days
of your singular consciousness
that is yours — alone

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

tilted yellow ring
of a blackbird's beady eye
waiting for worms

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

quiet afternoon
even the children’s questions
they sound like bird song

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

No profanity can break the oath of time.
No curse can turn its course
Nor stay its dreadful pace, upon the lives of men.

through clear air
a fearless robin sings
of spring

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

and as you Iook upon this love
laced with your lover’s starlit tears
you see that light — release your fears

the lattice work of you and light
glistens on your skin tonight
and opens all this hot delight

as fingers track across your skin
and through that veil so deep within
that's draped across our virtuous sin

all those drifting seeds
blown through the clear cold air
untill winter dies

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

that late grasshopper
just now I remember you
— especially now

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

last late winter days
sink into spring's green slippers
and the warm moist earth

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

in the watchtower
the hour is getting late
four riders at the gate

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt
#BobDylan

on the ice shelf
an arctic fish lies dead
awaiting the checkout
indifference and denial
the whole world is on trial

in the frozen stream
a trapped trickle of water
suddenly breaks free

#haiku #senryu #tanka
#DailyHaikuPrompt

the friendship of love
and its simple joyful beauty
is all there really is

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

between broken egg shells
and honey dripping pancakes
all the agony and the ecstasy

#DailyHaikuPrompt
#Haiku #senryu #tanka

everyone there is
takes shape from an egg
and a moment
