desolate beach
amidst the wind and surf
the
silence
Sreenath
singing
from swaying sunflower
sparrow
*
sudden rain
waiting it out under the eaves
first
date
Albert Schlaht
double rainbow ...
he browses through
the
AA pamphlet
Samo Kreutz
*
literary evening
that additional haiku –
a
marigold scent
Samo Kreutz
first day of school
every crying child in the bus
sounds
like mine
Vandana Parashar
*
monsoon
river unapologetically being herself
Vandana Parashar
shallow marsh
the deep croak
of
a bullfrog
Andrew Markowski
*
reflecting pool
a heron bathes
in
moonlight
Andrew Markowski
mountain village
after the feast we walk home
in
torchlight
Govind Joshi
*
cradling
a nest
crescent
moon
Govind Joshi
patches
of lichen
the belief of the abbot
in these scattered
stones
Keith Evetts
*
only
now
I know what it's worth
summer sunset
