Tinywords is back

Tinywords is back after a lengthy break (hooray!) starting on December 1st. A haiga of mine will appear somewhere in Issue 1.

See http://www.tinywords.com/ for details.

the drunk
so forceful
yet so light
when she barges into me
voices her opinions

out of nowhere
a whirlwind of leaves
travels down the road

daybreak -
each clump of grass
has its shadow

after all these years
still dancing it's routine
the beggar's cup


[Blithe Spirit 19:2]

the silence of pines -
midges in a shaft
of sunlight

silver on velvet -
the busker works his thank yous
into the song

rush hour…
two women embrace
then sign their goodbyes

 
 
[Published: Presence #39]

caught in the full-beam
the hare's tail
this way and that

these short evenings
in last year’s leaves
a blackbird skull


[Chrysanthemum #2]

daughter and
mother the
same hard face

low sun
beneath the web
the blue of a bluebottle



[First published: Blithe Spirit 18:4]

wheeling above the spinney
leaves and
jackdaws

quality time...
Dad's funeral stories
still making me laugh

all afternoon
my raindrops
race the others

mountain lake's stillness
my stone skips across
the sky

Chrysanthemum 6

Three pieces of mine have been included in the latest issue of Chrysanthemum.

If you can't read PDF files you may need to download free software to view it.

still there
above the stump -
a favourite tree

the physio's talk -
we break half-way
to stretch our legs

indian summer
an off-key greensleeves
stops mid-tune



I guess this one will only work in the UK
