Tanka #12

SeagullsOnChimneypot

Atop chimney pots,
seagulls survey their kingdom
— substitute cliff tops —
From this lofty nesting site
they can terrorise the street.

Spring haiku #2

woodpigeon

Early evening.
Plump wood pigeon contemplates
the meaning of Spring.

Tanka #2

Rain tumbles, birds swoop,
music floats from the red house–
melody recalled.
An old man, his piano,
a candelabra, her face.

An avian haiku

Peaceful interlude?

Rooks outshouting the traffic:

a treetop fortress.
