April 2010 Issue

SEVEN HAIKU
© Dominic Brecken

Insistent ocean
You beguile me with your dreams-
Beckoning always
_________________________________

Thoughts like autumn leaves
Twist into fluttering piles-
Or drift on, alone
_________________________________

Gentle forest path
Whisp’ring pools of light, green gold
Butterflies, birdsong
_________________________________

Soft city lights shine
And those velvet heaven stars-
The eyes of strangers
_________________________________

What is there; will be?
Atoms, sunlight, fire and dreams
Everything; always
_________________________________

Suddenly: a girl
Sunshine, perfume, swaying hips
My poor heart explodes
_________________________________

Springtime promenade
Sun-kissed girls and sweet perfume
Tomorrow? Who cares!
