Wildflowers upstream
Nature's baffling beauty
Leave them undisturbed

Television's on
But no one is listening
Fear of solitude

Worse than some etudes
Sonatas and Interludes
Masterpiece or bunk?

A newspaper stand
Full of tabloids and scandals
We cannot escape

Leaves covered in snow
Even the trees can't let go
A bird sings for spring

My life: the haiku
Everything's poetry
Beautiful as you

A love long ago
You've moved on; forgotten
Still regret leaving
