Ah, Devika, spring is not now . . . and the future is always far. May our breath remain plenty like the hidden birds!
sanjay rajan, Dr Zen, haikuexpeditions – Nice collection of haiku. The birds are close, indeed, but just hidden. Like haiku. A haiku is a gift. Many thanks.
Talking of protecting our friends….Ken, I came upon this idea that I like to kick around and see if we are get a community of poets going….I was thinking of Poets Without Borders as a place for everyone from anywhere, everywhere to post poetry to build bonds across the world. No rules on type of poetry/language or any such thing…

I think it is a good idea. Dave Bonta introduced me to this link, which seems like something similar – http://thepoetrycollaborative.org. Dave recently started a “micropoem” collaborative called http://openmicro.org.

Comfort of twigs,
sparrows nest..

from this afternoon:
Gingerly moves
On frozen creek
Ducks tap dance
Blank stares
At cawing raven
…Notes exchanged
Enjoy,

Experiencing our existence beside absence we may feel it most deeply…really love these two haiku

Thanks, Grant.
Presence/absence, scarcity/abundance, simplicity/complexity – these are the contrasts in which our voices take form and drift.
I really enjoy reading your work as well.
