HAIKU

Jack Galmitz

 
straggling clouds-
in the faces of sparrows,
the first raindrops		  
 
Brooklyn Bridge-
the cable's lengths cleaned
by the morning mist
   
Fine rain
carried by the East River
to Paris, France		  
 
Summer moon...
a man spraying graffiti
on a building wall
 
Summer moon...
I pass through it
to another world
