Looking For the Sun: 8 Haiku

1

Fallen leaves --
must I choose
between a balloon and a dragonfly?

2

Fallen leaves --
look! an old ballerina
is living in the trees!

3

Time travelled
saw Elvis and a Pharoah
then came home

4

Locust tree
most thorns
dying unused

5

In winter
I hold a candle up
to look for the sun

6

Dragonfly alights!
the angel
of acupuncture!

7

playing the didgeridoo
he looks south
toward the glaciers

8

Before the rock
finished its haiku
I turned to stone
