April 15th, Haiku
Morning Star
My light does not fail
With dawn's spreading light so red
I await the dusk
***
Sky Beast
The wind roars today
A heavenly lion hunts
Its lightning fangs close
***
Box Turtle
Beside backdoor steps
Green in green in midday shade
Still--unseen by cats
***
Afternoon
Up the hill greenly
A spotted horse, white mostly
The storm nears greyly
***
Still No Rain
The wind is heavy
The flowers tremble in fear
The storm comes to rend
***
I Await
I await darkness
To end the early spring heat
Storm to smite the sun
