April 25

Clear and elegant
That's how I want them to be
Quite unlike myself

It's been a long time
There's always another chance
Here I go again

February 1

An important day
A birthday in Modbury
Hail shines in dead leaves

January 12

A day a month ago
In the sunshine, spent with friends
I had forgotten

February 6

I was never good
At keeping resolutions
I will try harder...

January 11

Vivid in the sun
Rain soaked grass and shining rocks
Promise of better

January 10

Up Totnes Down Hill
Puffing and blowing, so steep
The wind cooling me

January 9

Coming back to Devon
I can say it's my home now
Not just visiting

January 8

Somerset Levels
Gleaming like an inland sea
Strange changed new landscape

January 7

It is difficult
To write haikus every day
Life gets in the way

January 6

I don't want to talk 
About the rain any more
Seeping in my mind

January 5

Sloosh swoosh patter drum
Drench soak puddle and torrent
Rain rain go away

January 4

The sky is washed clean

Thin blue stretching forever

Over the soaked hills

January 3

Attacking showers
Needle darts blown by the wind
Huddle and scuttle

January 2

Water receding
Vire Island still lapped by flood
But back from the brink

January 1

Rain falls endlessly
The sound of cars swishing by
Life on pause today
