I
chill wind,
the trees bend and sway
move by rote
II
cloudless sky
allows intense light on a frozen day,
energyless
III
wet morning
fog and cloud fill the cold sky,
pervading gray
IV
still pond,
fish in suspended animation
under ice
December 2009. Feeling a little bored and depressed, maybe just pre-holiday blues. Thought I'd try to express that in my first attempts at haiku. This is modern haiku, not the 5-7-5 form most of us probably learned in elementary school.
