Haiku for Nepal

your fading bellows
from the deep and dark rubble
your peace is our calm

Ramon Loyola

The traffic roars by.
A little red pineapple
ripens in the shade.

Alison Lester

Overheard: "it's the
unavoidable consequence
of the horror."

Ian Row

Out of cigarettes
The night is old and tiresome
Curl up with the boil :-)

James Sutekh

A praline inspired haiku

Praline (4x)
Please don't eat it just because
you can.

Cesca Alice & Ian Row

Do not speak to him
about his life... how dare you?
You do not know him.

sunset behind me
day well spent in fellowship
with humanity

New TV - Bluetoothed
within an inch of my life -
I'll never leave home

Ian Row

Holidays end soon
All those visits and time spent...
Can I start again?

KPM

Time starts now I'm told
Don't wait until your ready
They years pass like days

Ian Row

so sentimental
his very first backstabbing
#thingswemiss

Ian Row

Cosy apartment
North facing, close to PT
Suit small family

Ian Row

Wrapped in Mother's scarf
Holding tight with both his hands
Swinging on the swings

CRK

Bargain ignored: shirt
Fragrance unbought, despite squirt
Men's fashion sale time

Chris Gill

Prison death chamber
five straps on a long gurney
at one end... pillow

Author's note: It's terrible that capital punishment still takes place in Texas

Calendar haiku: April 2015

Cherry blossoms are falling -
and now between the trees,
a temple appears

Buson (1716 - 1784)

In a temple yard (1935) by
Yoshida Hiroshi (1876 - 1950)
