Here you go Larry! I was thinking we need a haiku thread, too.

The overhead moon
Reflects in the water stream
Splash disrupts nothing
It’s not much but you didn’t say it had to be good

Spring snow on the fields.
A lone kite circles an old farmhouse.
Swallowing time and space.

the continuing adventures of the mourning dove...
The dove calls softly
Sitting at the temple at dawn
The world is on fire

The lyrics are ... unconventional in that each verse (not counting the bridge) is a haiku.

I've always liked the song but never knew it was a haiku until several years ago. It's been recorded by many of the greats.KeithA wrote: ↑Wed Mar 28, 2018 5:11 pmvery cool!WoodsyLadyM wrote: ↑Wed Mar 28, 2018 11:23 amhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moonlight ... ont_(song)

Grey skies over the miserly early spring.
A murder of crows is building nests
In the tall leafless trees along the road.

Morning. No mourning dove.
Other birds awake, fill the silence
Cool air, open window

Taking a long road home
Between a green field and one yet to sprout,
I found a bench to rest on.
