not a hummingbird
it's but a leaf, fluttering
playing with the wind

a blustery day
while the wind tries very hard
to steal my hat away,
Glaucous-winged Gulls
hang motionless

three people
lost in their own worlds
on the same bench
facing the ocean
staring at paperbacks

endless waves
pounding on the beach
washing the sand

two young women
sitting on a bench
joyfully painting
watercolours
in the rain

nestled
in a tangle of limbs
she sleeps

#poetry #haiku #mpy #3lines

hovering
like an unresolved challenge
this morning's grey sky

February first
one twelfth of a year gone by
between raindrops ... life

umbrella, peak cap
long, flowing waterproof coat...
barefoot in the grass

tranquil moments
gathering thoughts like shells
from a pebbled shore
