AHS Summer Solstice Haiku String 2018

  1. Newly broad shoulders –
    my husband or my son?
    I hesitate.

    pre-dawn chill
    a tickle in the throat
    a sharp inhale

    thick summer rain
    ants in the strawberry
    – too late!

  2. summer solstice
    the night screams
    of Tassie Devils

    a tiger snake
    in the tomato patch . . .
    dark thunder

    moonrise
    a swamp harrier lifts off
    from the rushes

  3. lightning out of te blue-
    suddenly the spiker
    takes another world

    Black Friday-
    even the oldstter wardrob
    is brimful again

    the last leaf
    of the old calendar…
    I delay to break it
