Willow - Elfje

Bow'd
Willow woman
Skeletal fingers gathering
rippled fragments of lost dreams
Re-membering

Sentinel - Elfje

Ahoy,
Iron Man
at Crosby Beach
neither waving nor drowning
Sentinel

Harbour haiku

Harbour wall embraces
skittish fishing boats straining 
against anchor'd hearts

Snowdrops

Fragile,
blossoms birth
delicate as gossamer
spirits of winter past 
Snowdrops

Phoenix

Hawk
ruffles feathers
on filigree branches 
rises against firelit sunset
Phoenix

Dragon's tea Haiku

Sipping Dragon's tea
imagining curled claw
around fine china

Junction 3

Junction 3 
Buzzard shared my journey today 
for a stretch or two
until a beat of wings
lifted her into the airstream 
that pulls away to the sea
