One of those ‘stay in bed’ days
Sparrows hide in pines

not impressed by summer rain
bedraggled sparrows

Watching sparrows feed

Same family dynamics 

Kids scream, parents flap

cold snap

sudden storm of hail
now, at the end of April
sparrows not impressed

haiku, life, lives, memories, sparrows, time

memories form, fade
flick like sparrows in life’s eaves
seasons quickening

Sneeze dust

sparrows land in pines
shaking out clouds of pollen
soft golden sneeze dust

Beneath the lilac
golden eyes watch for small birds.
Cats make good shadows.
