  • Takenoko no haiku

    cracking wood
    devouring bamboo by the tonne
    lazily sleeping

    — the panda

    frantic digging
    pouring love into every plant
    sweating profusely

    — the gardener

    oblivious wandering
    striding through the garden
    maintaining the illusion

    — the emperor

  • haiku in the park

    ding-dong 
    counting the strikes
    twelve o'clock

    — church bells

    purr purr
    ever going in rounds
    pooing everywhere

    — pigeons

  • resting

    a prickling sensation
    like tiny insects
    crawling through the veins
    stretching legs
    flapping wings
    whipping the tail
    shaking of the tension
    making the insects go away
    feeling the need to rest
    lying down
    curling up
    taking a nap
  • leisure haiku

    blazing sun
    seeking refuge under a tree
    sipping a cold drink

    — sunny day

    fresh air
    water splashing on the skin
    lying in the sun

    — at a lake
