beside city bridge


beside city bridge
night falls electric blue, then
black, while one bird sings

Thank you Andrea Dietrich, The line is true -- I experienced this very thing just a couple of nights before I wrote this. :)

Kim, Thank you. This haiku is based on a an experience I had just the night before I wrote it. A walk in my little city -- across a little bridge -- to a little park as the night fell -- my partner and I sitting on a bench and one bird did sing.
