NIGHT SKYE M.a.g.a.z.i.n.e
|
4 Haiku
Vunerable
darkness of the opening:
standing erect
______________
Every breath
love in action:
fire in the hole
______________
Love tickles
with erect pistil:
hibiscus
______________
Alone
on her bed rings
the cell phone

5 Haiku
To hunt the hunters
flames mate with flames--
touch the sky
___________________
Silent Ram sheds
tears over the bodies burnt
in temple's name
___________________
Echoes of night song
flutter our embrace in bed:
rushing morning rays
___________________
Receding
winter leaves behind
allergies
___________________
In my courtyard swoop
neem, peepal, cheeku leaves:
autumn's ballet
