Haiku Collection

1.The storm is dancing-
I see it in the lightning;
Feel it on the wind.

2.What is deep to you?
Perhaps a shallow stream.
Well,oceans are my keep.

3.The day runs easy 
When time is laid aside for
Rest on grassy  hills.

4.Do you need some shade?
The maples and the oaks are
Giving it away.

5.Autumn in the woods;
Leaves that went the way too fast
Are still beautiful.

6.Cradle summer dreams;
Then let them go in winter
When the days are cold.

7.The sun-dappled elm
Rises like a monolith
Past the roof-top's edge.

8.Streaming ribbons high:
Unseen hands swept the sky 
As if with push broom.

9.His stippled painting
Of flowers on grassy hill,
Brings peace in my life.

10.The leaves are coming.
A sure sign that spring has put
Winter on the run.

Super collection Benjamin. To read them all is kool, if I was you I would have broken them up and posted aptly without the identifying numbers. But that's just my thoughts. Thanks kindly for your comments on my poem >> James
