HOT HAIKUS FROM 2012

1.
In the hot, blue pool,
> Three generations swimming,
> Him and her and me…

>
>2.
They buckle, they cringe,
> Those suffering Umbran mountains.
> How now, the frog’s plop?
>
>
>3.
Saved in the hay-barn
> My fresh Cello Concerto
> Fresh-born sounds sleep still.
>

>
>5.
Is music hot air ?
> Marinated in white wine?
> My cigar dies now.

>
>6.
Beware all red wines,
> The airless Umbran evenings.
> Strong their Cork-Screw Song !

>
>7.
The child and the pool
> Fused in my over-cooked brain.
> “Depth” and “death” are close…
>
