I received these in my email.....
haiku:
blackout
children cast animals
by candlelight
haiku:
lost in
the universe -
counting stars
haiku:
start of day
the beggar throws some coins
into his own bowl
tanka:
i walk over
fallen shriveled leaves
all my words to her
have turned to naught
my soul bare as the tree
free verse poetry:
A Bird came down the Walk
bird fun, they are all up there
drizzle, the row of little robins on the wire
a lost bee flying by, takes a round and flies off,
bird fun
a little kite gliding chirping
a sentinel for female kite
hatching its young in the trees
bird fun
they are all down there
a male white energetic refreshed
scintillating dove
after the rain
cleaning itself in a poodle
sprinkling off the water
inching its head in and out
of the water skillful
as a roman prince in his bath
bird fun
they are all down there
an inert cockroach
on the sundry shop verandah
snapped up by the sharp-eyed little brown bird
flew in, snapped and it went
without a care of the world
bird fun, they are all in the trees
the colorful bird with match size curved beak
hopping looking for berries
other flocks had patronized
and me....feeling guilty like a thief
that i am too trying to share its berries
