Where are the Lilacs?






Auburn haired woman
Walks tall with Irish Setter;
Which beast is prouder?




 
 



Flashes of bright light
As car passes through sunshine.
(The sunshine remains).




 



This year they bloomed late--
The violet rhododendrons.
Their time's always bright.



 



Roadside buttercup
Doesn't even know its name--
Still smiles at the sun.



 
 



 My old friend Samvid
Wanted to have a haiku;
And now he has one.







Bright lilacs are gone;
In their place are dried brown husks;
Where are the lilacs?




 



The fierce stump monster
Squinches under the burning sun;
He cannot speak his rage.







 Rustling in the bush;
It's too big to be a snake.
A dog in the grass!
