some poems from this year

hearing it

in the robin’s song

first light

          Presence 75

 

 

 

by means of pheromones summer clouds

          Modern Haiku 54.3

 

 

 

morning light a fly carries some dew elsewhere

          Presence 76

 

 

 

hazel budburst the green woodpecker’s rippling call

          Blithe Spirit 33.2

 

 

 

in the wilderness of bluebells war graves

         Presence 76

 

 

a tinker with what spells birdsong

          NOON: journal of the short poem, 23

 

 

amongst saplings
a fox skull missing
most of its teeth

          Kingfisher 8

 

 

 

all tabs open november rain

          Kingfisher 7

 

 

 

thinking it’d get easier winter stars

          Acorn 50

 

 

until there’s only the robin dusk

          Kingfisher 7

Also, I’ve had the pleasure of being interviewed by Julie Bloss Kelsey at the haiku foundation. It can be read here.

  1. Thanks for posting these lovely poems, Caroline. I really connect with the synesthesia of the ‘robin’s song’ poem. It reminds me of waking up, mornings when I’m camping. And the ‘winter stars’ monoku brings a sweet light to periods of grief.
