Haiku
Gaze slips lingering
Through insulated window
Spirit flies to spring
Rain dimples shiver
Scattering picture images
Break my dream reverie
Hear pan pipe flute call
Wonder what haunted mountain
Mystic voice is from?
White amid the green
Serene clouds float on water
Pond reflected sky
Spirit wind blow clear
Chase my confusion away
Bring back clarity
Leopard sits watching
Politely on the high veldt
Hands folded on lap
Strong wind shakes leafy trees
Chase white clouds 'cross baby blue sky
While nature cries “Peace”
