James Horn Poet Haiku

A Horde of Haiku

A Horde of Haiku

A horde of Haiku
Is what will be found when you
Read all of mine through.

What if embittered
And all your patience is lost
It could be costly.

Leaves are on branches
Cattle exist on ranches
Are there some to spare?

(Can questions be part of haiku?)

Books do have pages
And price may be outrageous
So check out instead.

(Library credo.)

How long will you wait?
For me to originate
What I contemplate.

So if it was you
Who was first to contemplate
How long should I wait?

For Frost to appear
His horse thinks that it is *****
No farmhouse is near.

Think it was last year
Catastrophe I did fear
And now it is here.

Forgot to turn in
My book I checked out again
Patience wearing thin.

A book here and there
All over and everywhere
Looks like library.

A Horde of Haiku Hiding in a Library.

James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran
