Curse
A few scattered clouds at daybreak, Riverside County, California
Crow from the mountain,
have you nothing else to do
but curse at the clouds?

Daybreak
A gravel road at sunrise, Yuma County, Arizona
On a country road
a dove begins at daybreak
to sing a new song.

Wilderness daybreak—
one day the photo will fade,
leaving me nothing.

Without
Autumn sunrise, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
rising as balloons
a thousand clouds at daybreak—
autumn festival
~~~ ~~~ ~~~
one more day’s journey
without a destination—
I lay down my flute

Daybreak
Glass lamp shaped as a star, hanging from a courtyard tree at daybreak, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México
Chiyo-Ni’s haiku about lark song inspires me to write a new haiku:
Two or three
sing all night
larks
~~ ~~ ~~
one lark in the night
one star just before daybreak
singing with one tongue

Renunciation
Mesquite blossoms at daybreak, Sonoran Desert, Southern Arizona
If the mesquite tree
were to renounce its blossoms,
how would it bear fruit?
