NaPoWriMo 2024 - Day 3

Celia Jenkins

Four Haiku


Hermit crab -

I plough heart-heavy footsteps

To the sand


Attic room rain drum,

Strangley ensconced -

Springtime sigh


Petals bat together,

Inhaling, taking flight -

A butterfly 


Whip wind

Tugs tendrils beachwards -

Sighing waves


***


The #napowrimo prompt didn't take my fancy today, so instead, some haiku. I'm rereading Basho at the moment (On Love and Barley) after a conversation with June Wentland and its nice to remember how much I like Haiku, and how much I want to explore other Japanese poetry forms. Watch this space... #NaPoWriMo2024
