March 2013 – haiku andy

Haiku 20130331

on this side of life
comprehending at last
the march rain

chinese bakery
the lady asks where I’ve been
and I lie to her

rejection slip —
and still the sparrows
sing of spring

glen park bistro
the white apron waitress
smoking outside

the full moon
how soothing to sit here,
to remember

clinging
to the fabric of my coat
spring morning chill

traffic sign
black arrow obscured
by blooms of lichen
