Haiku (1 To 5) Poem by Eddie Roa

Haiku (1 To 5)



1.Landfill

Urchins eyeing lunch
Cats, dogs and rodents in wait
Garbage man cometh

2.Tiny Flowers

Tiny flowers niched
On mossy walls by the well
Crushed by errant pail

3. Loneliness

Loneliness seeks ease
With strange alien faces
Babbling nonsense

4. The Bamboo

Lithe and pliant cane
The bamboo, a boy’s delight
It cracks at great strain

5. Cold Morning

Early morning fog
Stirs the sleeping children
Woken by the chill
