A raven’s feather
Is no less than a dove’s
Atleast in my mind
Blink, and youth is gone.
Grasping it is like catching
water with a sieve.

Weekly Haiku 2021 #9
Eleven before
The eleventh hour strikes
Pandemic birthdays
dusk hues —
a row of bare trees
& their patience
風
Some Spring Haiku by Kristen Lindquist
morning fog
my to-do list full
of question marks
circling back
to our conversation
broad-winged hawk
spring flooding
the river goes back
to its old ways
still-leafless trees…
pondering the motives
of crows
spring flood
pairs of ducks
sail past
March wind
on the bay whitecaps
become gulls
rainy day traffic
memories of the ocean
within us all
ice storm
the surprising number
of hollow…
This is how it starts.
Memories grip you, and then
you’re dancing with ghosts.

Art…
Hidden in the shadows
Ancient urges stir.
We are not ourselves
when we have no romance time
let’s go re-find us
Haiku – 3/3/2021
Bird on the mailbox
Chirping out it’s morning song
Looking for some worms
I will stay with you
Despite how it’s killing me
I want to be yours
Gnawing sensations
That feign to rip, tear, or shred
Can be relinquished
Brazenly loud yet
Even when I scream and shout
No one seems to hear
Latch on and then just
Refuse to let go and you
Wouldn’t be the first one
