spring sunshine
warming yon sea gull’s wings
a cold wind blows
fly above the world
into the warmth of springtime
villagers sleeping
§
one last flight
into the sun past the night
alone

The “one last flight” has a mystical feeling to it.

Thanks Alice, that one came straight from my muse and was a last second addition.

I’m glad you listened to your muse for that one. It’s pure inspiration… the breath of the muse is in it. 🙂

Thanks Alice I really agree with you, though not in a true haiku form, I really liked it so let it stand! 🙂

A good poem is a good poem.
I’m not certain there is a “true haiku form” in English, anyhow. I don’t know how to compare Japanese language poetry and syllable counting to the English language.
I like the counting, though. It forces me to say what I want to say more carefully and cleanly. 🙂

That one last flight just might be the most difficult…
