Haiku for the mist

Mist by Nakazawa Hiromitsu 1907

Through the mist I walk.

The long longed peace embraces me.

We blend. We are one.

Hush!

Hush! said the silence,
brushing my words timidly
with the ink of love.

Our love story fits a haiku.

 Snetterton, 23rd of July 2011

Shivering sadness.

Summer raindrops on our cheeks,

gently, the sun hides.

Truth

Japanese symbol for Truth

Think love. Think truth. stop. | Feel love. Feel Truth. Stop. Stop there. | Feel any difference?

Sweet stranger

Fist against my heart

and a long, deep humble bow

for you, sweet stranger.

Haiku voor de mist (with English translation). Also for Wendy.

Wat zoek jij? vroeg hij, | de blinde die alles ziet | met zijn bloot gevoel.

 

What do you seek? he asked, | the blind who sees all | with his bare feeling

Welcoming winter (double haiku, and a single poem). For Wendy, who triggered the inspiration.

The mist ahead chills | every effort of sight. | My eyes close in faith, | as i walk the path, | fearless of the blind future, | i beckon the clouds.

Autumn, at last

It is over, now
over the fields, moisture dwells
on dry summer leaves.

Just by...

As long as we live
in selfless kindness, we give 
just by existing.

Autumn

Gold! it will all be,
the sinking sun, the quiet pond
and the musty leaves.

On Equinox day

Fullmoon rain falls loose,

soulmating in loneliness 

with the dreamy night.

Broken storm (haiku)

Waterfalls of light
filter through the guarding clouds,
blessing restless waves.

Equinox (Haiku)

Fall leaves, falling free.
Deep honey lights chant and leak
through the sleepy mist.

Nirvana (with English translation)

"No, no sé nada"
dice la luz, hambrienta
de sol vacío.

"No, I know nothing"

says the craving light, hungry

for an empty sun.

The pursuit of...?

Men made man greedy:

egos as empty balloons

floating aimlessly.

Haiku of hope for the lonely

Split in syllables,
lonesome street songs cry and mend
my broken love dreams.

Haiku for The Hague

Hush, hush, The Hague speaks.
Powdery rain pours over
creaking steamy streets.

Farewell to the summer

Weeping willow trees,
a coffin, crushed leaves
in cracking stillness.

Ahora (see free English translation below)

 Oh! ser y estar!
justo en el presente,
sin temor, con fe.

Now

To be and to be!

oh! just now, in the present,

without fear, with faith

Summer night

The church bells ring once
The soft night heat blows sweetly
Dreams crawl on my bed
