july river 11

these gorgeous girls
in their Italian sunglasses
and sparkly flip-flops
who move like water

I want to press a fingertip
to their golden skin
just to watch it spring
back into place

    Great verse about this itch to do something you only would do when you are young - and you only think about to do it when you are not. My skin still finds its old position: I drink three litres of water a day ;-)

    Best wishes
    Ralf

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.
