Poetry by Phil Rees

Haiku 49

blissful exhaustion
this silent morning, baby
sleeps peaceful at last

Filed under: haiku, ,

Haiku 48

autumnal hubbub
crisp as dried leaves, their voices
drown slow breaking waves

Filed under: haiku

Haiku 47

from spring to winter’s

end, when i will rot or burn,

i sculpt a lifetime

Haiku 46

concussion of moths

from last night’s window, mourning

scattered on the deck

Filed under: haiku, , ,

Haiku 45

in sunburned garden

hot foot the deck, lay blissful

naked in the shade

Haiku 44

vultures on thermals
above tai chi set, fuck off
not getting me yet

Filed under: haiku, ,

Haiku 43

high on the thermals
crows mobbing eagles, cawing
hey get off my land

Haiku 42

my son’s morning nap
traffic and birdsong, a duet
an odd lullaby

Filed under: haiku, ,

Haiku 41

sunshine and illness
the perfect excuse, deck-chairs
for vitamin D

Filed under: haiku, ,

Haiku 40

springing the dried wood
I lift, the axe falls, splitting
the grain of the year
