Haiku of the Week Archives: August 2024

A year for flowers – and insects…    

Droning in and out
landing on food, glasses – you.
A Summer for wasps.

***************************

Over Valentia…    

Motionless kestrels
hang over the moving bog.
Watching for movement.

***************************

Watching the skies…    

Ravens own the sky.
See off a hanging kestrel,
‘kronk’-ing their pleasure.

***************************

Monday was wild but lovely…    

Monday’s excited:
rushing – playing – through the house,
banging doors behind.

***************************

A calm evening…    

Dusk falls fast. And calm.
Midges arrive from Nowhere.
We cheer on the bats.
