1. Celestial Delight <br /> <br />On a moonless night <br />stars enter sky through clouds: <br />celestial delight. <br /> <br />2. February Flowers <br /> <br />Winter trees shiver with <br />wind, branches dropping snow crystals: <br />February flowers. <br /> <br />3. Butterfly's Light Touch <br /> <br />Broken twigs crunch <br />beneath heavy feet, lacking <br />butterfly's light touch. <br /> <br />4. Puma at 2: 00 am <br /> <br />At two a.m. mother <br />puma stalks slowly on roadside: <br />dangerous grace in motion. <br /> <br />5. Bleeding Poppies Bloom <br /> <br />Low on horizon <br />red moon looms, lacking pity: <br />bleeding poppies bloom. <br /> <br />(Copyright 12/31/2005)<br /><br />Hugh Cobb<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/five-haiku-2/
