It's quarter to ten:
There's no one in the room
but rules of haiku!
New Year's a season:
squirrels contradicting whom —
And whose love is who? — DS, 1 / 9 / 03
Whose woods, whose leaves, whose
icicles hanging from trees?
Who deserves credit?
The yew tree gave us
years of green and private shade.
The snow storm felled it. – DL, 1 / 9 / 03
Re: Sinatra's in Season: Haiku snow falls
No more rhymes, just fact:
Pigeons above basketball
court — past — present tense —
Is the future fact?
Sinatra in outer space —
Glenn Gould's Goldberg cracked – DS 1/ 10 / 03
… and you can get it
Sinatra’s always
in season: nice work
if you can get it.
So I wrote a piece
on him for “American
Heritage,” R Snow,
editor. The snow
needs no editing,
none shall get from me.
No sun’s as bright as
on a January day
with snow on the ground. — DL, 1 / 10 / 03
