Paul Callus Poet Haiku

Notes About The Poem

 

Spring Haiku String

Today 6 of my haiku were selected and translated on Haiku Column. 
Thank you Mine Sensei and Chiaki Sensei. (4th February 2021)

spring rain -
the blessing of forgiveness 

hazed in tears -
the poignant moment of departure				

spring rain -
the soothing tears of relief 

spring storm -
a child cowers under his bed

the first spring wind -
a sprite plays the flute

heat haze -
anger impairs his judgement
