Summer Breeze
from the Blue Book
summer breeze
new leaves trail
spider silk 968
summer fun
splashing at the shore
the queue for ice creams 969
blossom gone
two faced leaves
hide a mystery 970
so deep
pink tyre tracks
in blossom 972
spring arrives
even birds
tidy nests 975
a suit
the colour of spring
flowers bloom 976
summer sun
the lake as dry
as I am 977
eucalyptus grove
spring breeze receives
applause 978
summer night
rabbit shows another girl
the moon 980
stumbling home
that bee has been
on the mead again 981
summer dreams
reflected things
through tears 984
Whakaipo Bay
kept apart by seasons
I return 991
rubbish day
the sound of work
far away 994
through the tree
through the tree
until it disappears 996
spring chorus
little chance to hear
blossom fall 997
blue clouds
looking at life
the other way 998
Mount Fuji
journey
completed 1000
From the Book of Seven Syllables
outside Church
the ladies with
rhododendrons 4 and
outside Church
ladies mingle with
rhododendrons 4A
journey's end
the path folded
into hills 5
doctors surgery
my cough
is the best 11
flying
a muscle car
grey heron 12
spring sky
between the trees
to the west 24
clouds in a jam
spring showers stop
the planting 25
pea straw
showing new shoots
tui's call 27
mountain dusk
describing the colour
of cricket song 34
cricket season
another year avoiding
the radio 35
full moon
reading me
like a diary 36
winters chill
the widening gap between
confidences 40
spring envy
those that can
love 41
