Seasonal Hiakus

SEASONAL HIAKUS

Summer

Days stretch out their arms
Spirits lift with rising sun
Bare feet in the sand

Autumn

Leave are falling down
Small Wellington-booted feet
Kick them through the town

Winter

Not a time of death
Reflect upon the year just gone
Look out for the next

Spring

Wild birds proudly preen
Peeping primrose, shy snowdrop
Shooting spears of green
