A few timely haiku from the new book I am putting together, “A Drift of Birdsong.”
c.p.
Seeing through
the empty chrysalis
a child’s wonder
Hurricane threat
the name of the first-grade friend
who cut off my bangs
Hurricane cleanup
in a large puddle
one blue boot
Pointing out a star . . .
on my wrist
the fan of mosquito wings
