HAIKU
Sandra Simpson
|
morning traffic
sitting still
a cormorant |
|
| |
|
| |
pawlonia leaf
blows at the screen
my unread book |
| |
|
new house plans
the perfect triangles
in a spider's web |
|
| |
|
| |
autumn wedding
my grandfather's
faded grin |
|
|
summer's end
moving towards me
the shadow of the house |

Sandra Simpson lives in Tauranga, New Zealand, in the aptly named Bay of Plenty. She is the founding editor of a haiku webpage which may be seen at www.poetrysociety.org..nz/haiku.html and has a haiku inscribed on a river boulder in New Zealand's only haiku pathway at Katikati, established as a millennium project and recently extended. As well as haiku, Sandra also writes "regular" poetry, takes Chinese brush-painting lessons, enjoys going to the gym and walking, and does lots of reading, listening and talking (laughing optional).
