Many Beginnings

 

Haiku by Sarah Mahina Calvello

🍂Certain of nothing
Sitting on the sunlit porch
Scenery to note🍂

🍂Clouded by morning,
The mirrored sunlit window
Many beginnings🍂

Bunch of haiku, Softly and Sweetly

 

Haiku by Sarah Mahina Calvello

🍂Softly and sweetly
The lightened moon is rising
Long perfumed grasses🍂

🍂Corridors of mist
The jasmine moon of August
Missing what is gone🍂

🍂The full moon nestled
Under the dissolving mist
Bewitched and bothered🍂

🍂In the pale moonlight,
The unexplainable road
Summer hydrangeas🍂

🍂New morning dawning
Glimmering and glistening
Red poppies resting🍂

🍂Haunting the senses
Gardenias in the new storm
Wishing you were here🍂

Anticipation, Finding Secrets, Walking Down the Path

 

Sarah Mahina Calvello produces her work using an association of ideas, an old Japanese technique.

 

🍂Anticipating

Flowers become cold

Under the hazy moon🌙🍂

 

🍂Finding secrets

Left in the new grass garden

Stolen shadows🍂

 

(Stolen shadows might be an absence of light, the darkness beloved by Taoists.)

 

Walking down the path

Leaves turn to color

Waiting for the sun
