Refugee

nurses her baby

Beach
Puerto Nuevo, Baja California Norte, Mexico
Yosa Buson’s haiku about a broom and a beach inspires me to write a new haiku:
The short night—
a broom thrown away
on the beach.
~~ ~~ ~~
a tree for her broom
old woman sweeping the beach
just before nightfall
~~ ~~ ~~
Imagine a broom tidying the beach.

Summoned
Castoffs from the sea, Puerto Nuevo, Baja California Norte, México

Empty
Deserted beach, Puerto Nuevo, Baja California Norte, México
an empty seashore—
not even wayward children
picking up stray shells

Crystal
Along the beach, Puerto Nuevo, Baja California Norte, México
crystal clear sunlight
reflects all colors in the mirror—
shadow of a dragon
huddling in a seaside cave
Jonah hides himself from God

Fishing
Puerto Nuevo, Baja California Norte, México
summer evening
a breeze turns leaves over
abandoned book
fishing among the shadows
she hopes to catch a fresh word

Drenched
A ship under full sail, painted on a restaurant door, Puerto Nuevo, Baja California Norte, México
Sometimes letters come,
drenched in salt spray from the sea—
the same old stories.
