New Farm Park Haiku

extreme solitude

listening to

trees talking

• 
  

silly roses

just forgive

the annoying bees

• 
  

the river has glistened

long enough

for the summer house windows

• 
  

must be growing old--

polite chatter

at the wedding party

• 
  

park bench

if only you could see

what I see

• 
  

ripening fruit

forgive me

I took your virginity

• 
  

public toilet

I am not compelled

to flush

Clearly Procrastinating...

Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens Haiku Sequence

Sandgate Haiku

corrugated mud

how silent

the rotting branch

• 
  

I see it

then I don't

aeroplane through trees

• 
  

distant waves

paperbark rustles

too

• 
  

howling wind

at low tide

the dog tracks fill in

• 
  

kite surfing

falling leaves

also

Mt. Cootha Haiku

last night's storm

trapped up

in aloe vera grooves

• 
  

solitude gathering

a falling branch

startles me

• 
  

alone again

by the waterfall

my bladder expands

• 
  

tired of bamboo gazing

I look to the pond--

bamboo reflection

• 
  

gathering moss

a nearby waterfall

beckons

• 
  

walking from bench to bench

towards the pond

my ass gets moist

• 
  

each gust of the waterfall

drowning out

the aeroplane's roar

• 
  

how pleasant to see

flowers evolving

into butterflies

• 
  

parrot flowers

we have met before

on my lawn

• 
  

lone spider

guards the footpath--

no entry

• 
  

thatched roof

creeping closer

to the doodia candata

• 
  

heart jumping

oh wait it's not a spider

but a dangling leaf

• 
  

rustling leaves

the darkening path

goes on and on

• 
  

lizard stalks a moth

then I follow

trees

• 
  

native violet

each cry of the cormorant

you bob your head

• 
  

fossil logs

how many passing clouds

have you seen?

"Have All The .... In The World", Mum says

wrapper

after wrapper

in the study room

bin as i devour more

coles almond classics

mini types that mum

does not stop buying

in truck loads flash

back to a time when

my brother and sis

ever mentioned we

liked something

mum stocked

the storage

room

full

first

choc

bars

then

cheese

and

bacon

shapes

yum

Southbank Parklands Haiku

light through smog

is it sun

or moon?

summer solstice

shorter than her

pink dress

rising tide

not even the river

wants the cola bottle

Sunday walk

listening in silence

for the silence

coffee chatter fading--

the river curls

around mangroves
