Andrew Hamlin haiku
The Reader critic misses Helen Wiggin
- Summer’s last party
- The boy bounces a pebble
- off his teeth
- ***
- Summer dies humid
- one new note in the klaxon
- on the fire engine
- ***
- Maid in doorway
- rocked back on bare heels
- from a spring shower
- ***
- My ceaseless fan
- proves quite mortal, really —
- the electric bill
- ***
- Blue swallow, gone...
- upon the pond
- fresh skins of ice
- ***
- How soon, this year
- cherry blossoms — how soon
- the windshower
- ***
- I’ve got nothing left —
- housefly pivots, sticky feet
- kitchen window
- ***
- That light, this light
- none of it all shall sate —
- the firefly
- ***
- That cold day,
- not yet late in the year—
- persimmons crack
- ***
- My head empty
- those are trees, at least, I think...
- and somewhere stars...
