Seasons
By Rob Kistner | April 24, 2008
Author’s note: This is a suite of four haiku that reflect the seasons of the year.
Seasons
•
Spring
(haiku)
•
wings flutter gently
spring breeze bends full flowered stems
meadow dance begins
• • •
Summer
(haiku)
•
green leaf on blue pond
turns in golden summer sun
red bird softly sings
• • •
Fall
(haiku)
•
stalks lie down in fields
arbors burst with ripened grape
fall is on the land
• • •
Winter
(haiku)
•
coarse lands cloaked in white
lakes bejeweled in crystal
winter’s dressing hand
• • •

Thank you!
I have always found Fall to be an enchanted time of the year — my favorite season.

Your web sites are rich. I enjoyed thinking of a suite of Haiku, which on opening, unleashes the seasons. To me, Winter is the gem of this quartet. But all were enjoyed.
Peace,

Thank you… I’m pleased you enjoyed it.
I thoroughly enjoy creating a collage to visually tell the story of the poem it accompanies. I always try to capture a coherent theme in each collage.
