A Punch of Haiku

HAIKU

in the afternoon
his rendezvous with her
and her shadow too
~~~
standing in the park
behind a little cabin
two shadows kissing
~~~
on your way windstorm
bring dust and leaves and paper
and letters for me
~~~
a sudden whirlwind
the poems i wrote outdoors
delivered to heaven
~~~
the almond tree
blossoms falling falling
the child still swinging
~~~
in the olive grove
singing aloud all night long
with the cicadas
