haiku
five dead leaves falling
upward onto the branches
of a bare oak tree

the end of winter
as i approached, i startled a group of sparrows that had
been feeding in the grass, and they who floew up to the safety of
an old oak tree. it was still early enough in the year that the
branches of the tree were bare. but the bird songs and the
warm sun made me feel certain that winter was ending. as i
watched, the sparrows dropped from their high perches and
settled again in the grass to hunt food. like winter, i was
just an interruption.
