dusk
a fresh baguette
crackles in my palm



three sneezes
all that’s left
of the snowman

    So, you're moving into spring, Lynne - with fresh bread. Lucky you! I've read through your other posts. The writing is so descriptive - I feel I'm there with you.

    Hi Barb - it's definitely spring here in the south of France (not counting the last 3 days of rain!). Today we're back to blue sky, and the bright pink blossom on the old plum tree is opening out as I type : ) Thanks for the kind words.

    Two very nice haiku, Lynne. The first is very tactile.

    sudden thaw...
    the snowman's eyes
    turn back to stones

forgiving the rain due from Snapshot Press

all this green forgiving the rain (first published by tiny words , 13.3.2008 ) I never thought that one little haiku written in my head while driving along the motorway in the rain would end up being the title of a book... but it is and I am very happy. forgiving the rain, my haibun collection, will be published by Snapshot Press in November 2012. Lovely. Now to find a cover image that will serve the collection well.
