HAIKU
sea breeze:
my shadow hovers
on the ocean floor
easy silence
taking the bunch of keys
warm from your hand
spring morning
painted on the footpath:
proposed tree
empty house:
three seedpods ripen
on the windowsill
Jane Gibian
on the coffin lid
our faces
in the clouds
art gallery cafe
before eating she
photographs her food
Jeffrey Harpeng
September orchids
blatant sex in the perfumed
conservatory
Jill Cartwright
visiting mother
all the teaspoons of
my childhood
John West
heat wave
the dog bites at shining
hose water
dog days
the old fence leans towards
its shadow
a big wind
erases the clouds
the stars
city sunrise
the towers fade to breath
on the windowpane
Sue Stanford
deep in the forest
the lyrebird's call
mimics the chainsaw
Michael de Valle
long afternoon
the kitten chases
a bird's shadow
Sue Mill
winter dawn on the ragged
hedge snow
thin wind on the washing line
sparrows
grape harvesting
smiling through leaves
the new picker
quiet night
rustling of leaves
as the moon wanes
