Three Haiku

Gray sky at morning, sailors in mourning. Gray sky at night, sailors take fright.


1.

Awaiting rain

Night descends without stars

Deserted streets in winter


2.

From out of the lake

a fish leaps into Fisherman’s throat:

True story


3.

An apology

to the snail

I have crushed underfoot.
