Autumn Haiku


Haiku can be a spiritual experience, as can a lot of poetry. It paints a picture that can touch your inner being and create word pictures that remain with you.
I hope you enjoy these lovely poems and the pictures adjoining them.



            Sky Calligraphy

 The wild geese write a verse against the glow.
Over the hills, their seal..
the moon below.

by Buson





      The Crimson Carpet

Scattered with maple leaves,
where no one has stepped,
my garden path is better left unswept.

 by Hekigo







           
      Refuge

This autumn night : chilly, dreary,
I find refuge at the shrine,
I am so weary.

By me
