july river 16

the sea as clear as light this morning

a little girl stands under the beach shower
and opens her mouth

a rose tattoo
above a woman's right buttock

I step around the pebbles on the sea-bed

  1. I love these separate but connected glimpses.

  2. Thank you, Rosemary. My 'stones' are a little more fragmented than they were in January when I had more time to reflect and shape. But it's good to know that some connections are coming through. : )

Consolidation & Simplification

Since January 2020 all my work - haiku writing, poetry, prose, imaginative and non-fiction writing - has been posted on my website   Lynne Rees .  Please feel free to share anything from this archive, or my main site, but I'd be grateful if you could credit me as the writer and link back to the source.  Thank you 🙏 Lynne 

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.
