Haiku #670

670.

Ladybird on leaf;
Unseasonal deft beauty,
Hibernating dreams.

669.

Dreams of how love works;
I have no cogs, no levers,
And yet, a new verse.

668.

Nettle mistiness;
Autumn settled overdue debts
With unfettered joy.

665.

Autumnal love-swan,
How long dear will you be gone?
My swift thoughts are yours.

664.

Might I possess love,
A moment, one, just enough;
I’ll stay strong for you.

663.

How could I explain
In seventeen syllables
This depth of feeling.

660.

Blue October rains,
How can anything be the same
Now I have a name.

661.

My ears are yearning;
All these years were slow-burning
In nautilus souls.

662.

Long maritime love;
I’ve been at sea for so long.
Rock salt, scented words.

659.

Nervous, impulse flocks,
Impulse, thoughts, then images;
So I sought my love.

658.

I tried for a while
To hide magnetised feelings
In meditation.

657.

Each raindrop silent,
Impacting on surfaces;
Then a crescendo.
