Tri-Haiku XL (soon)

Soon all these weekends
will be an everyday thing
as I count the days

Soon my time will be
insufficient for counting
on just ten fingers

Soon my every day
will be weekends forever
So I count the days

Metaphoric III (haiku)

From the day before

Another Friday
brings sunshine to the weekend
despite metaphor

From yesterday

Saturday follows
and sunshine is in my heart
despite metaphor

For today

And so to Sunday
Sunshine's actually here
despite metaphor

Back to the old and new (haiku)

Concluding the ‘About Brighton’ series (12 of 12)

Through the grandiose
a glimpse of today’s Brighton
History merges

The day after (haiku)

3 of 3 (1 the day before, 2 yesterday)

And after all that
a long walk in winter sun
to dust off cobwebs

Christmas Day is here
festivity, fun and glee
and very late lunch

The Eve (haiku)

On the eve before
as anticipation looms
softly comes the night

Tri-haiku XXXIX (vibrant)

Vibrant this colour
at this golden time of year
when greenery fades

And the sunset comes
The years' full swansong sings loud
with echos to gold

Leaving me speechless
Silenced by this golden awe
at the curtain call

Rhythm II (reprise)

6 of 10 in the Jemverse series ‘Music II’

As the music fades
with the rhythm of my drum
I am still dancing
