HAIKU

picking raspberries . . .
the sun
in my mouth |
|
|
|
|
spring morning . . .
following the snail
through wisteria petals |
|
|
poppies
unfolding
the sun |
|
|
|
|
sultry night . . .
feeble flaps
of a dying moth |
|
|
recipes fall
from granny's book . . .
a chill wind |

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).
