HAIKU

Five dead leaves falling

upward onto the branches

of a bare oak tree


THE END OF WINTER

As I approached, I startled a group of sparrows that had

been feeding in the grass, and they who floew up to the safety of

an old oak tree. It was still early enough in the year that the

branches of the tree were bare. But the bird songs and the

warm sun made me feel certain that winter was ending. As I

watched, the sparrows dropped from their high perches and

settled again in the grass to hunt food. Like winter,I was

just an interruption.
