Haiku 1
in a vacant mood
I feel chimerical touch
your hands on my back
Haiku 2
bare lockdown street
a vagabond looking for
bread in garbage dump
Haiku 3
embers kindling
creative power within you
set fire to the world
Haiku 4
bleak and bitter cold
religious prejudice
light logs of love
Haiku 5
white foal foot flowers
fall on a deserted corpse
create shroud for it
Haiku 6
a lone thrush chanting
its melody oozes from
freedom a girl lacks
Haiku 7
ceaseless showers of
bright scarlet salvias
blanketed old earth
Haiku 8
new wed bride in red
a sky of dreams in eyes
her spring came like gale
