Haiku of the Week Archives: January 2023

Spotting the gorgeous, tiny goldcrests among the beech in in the woods…

Goldcrest’s comb’s bright flash
the wood’s only colour.
That, and gold of beech.

Wind…

Curtains sway and dance
To the music of the wind.
A wild, ancient score.

Gales, watching crows…

Spread-eagled crows hang,
Making minute adjustments,
Balancing on air.

In the bare woods, you can see how it was considered a “noble of he wood”…

Hazel’s raw-silk bark
gleams, even in these short days.
A Noble’s attire.
