Jennifer Hunt - Haiku
Wednesday 11 May 2011
fossil feet striding out
from ancient layers of sandstone
dinosaurs awake
Tuesday 10 May 2011
snails hide from the sun
waiting for the night-time rain
to open like buds
Monday 9 May 2011
house martins swooping
under the eaves making nests
their beaks full of mud
Sunday 8 May 2011
tissue paper nest
honeycomb cells tucked inside -
a labour of love
Saturday 7 May 2011
sea kale on the pebbles
rubbery leaves veined with mauve
resisting salt winds
Friday 6 May 2011
on the barbed wire fence
a black bin-liner flapping
like a captured crow
Thursday 5 May 2011
a corner to sit
level with the tops of hills
and flight of buzzards
Wednesday 4 May 2011
horse chestnut flowers
festoon the tree like candles
on a chandelier
Tuesday 3 May 2011
caught in the headlights
white flowers jostled by gales
a clamouring crowd
Monday 2 May 2011
tiny moth wings spread -
minute tapestry in red
on a broad bean leaf
Sunday 1 May 2011
bumble bee busy
in the long grass on the bank
a plane overhead
