Haiku 100 - It's a wrap!

See, an open door:
A birth into poetry;

a start, not an end.

100-day haiku challenge, no 90

Since you have been gone
the evening light seems sweeter,

as if taunting me.

100-day haiku challenge, no. 80

Can you dance alone?
Can you sing without music;

rest without knowing?

100-day haiku challenge, no. 71

I must continue to create, perhaps as a counterpoint to all the badness. After the passing of the controversial Kenya's Security Laws Amendment Bill (2014), I feel like a lost bird. So, now I can be arrested for having coffee with three friends?

A confused chicken
Crows after the sun is up.
Confident and lost.

100-day haiku challenge, no. 60

This one is about the revenge of the chicken. I am looking for live chickens to photograph.

      Chicken fat congeals.
      Promises a heart attack –
      the dead bird’s revenge.

Birthday haiku



In friendship’s basket
I find memories, a word,
and season-less love.

Haiku no. 50!

...yes, there is light at the end of the 100-day haiku tunnel.

Today I mended:
a friendship with humble words,
a bent rose with tape.
