They kick an old tree,
then they stab the outer-bark;
sap tears start flowing.

Seaside
By the seaside, we stay
living our lives away.
We oft say “come what may“,
as we live for today.
Til the end of the play,
we’ll live only our way.
The Fading Daylight
Sun intensifying,
a banana chair in view,
work time almost finished,
the day slowly turns into night.
You whisper, “Here you go, my dear…“.
I look back and say, “Thank you, my love, for the beer…“.
We sit in the concreted shade
until the last of the daylight fades.
The Bottom
Reaching for your hand,
you are so far from me,
trying to touch you in vain.
You reached the bottom,
no lower down to go,
nothing left for you to lose.
Reaching for your hand,
you seem closer now,
touching your warm hand.
Haiku: Matcha Gelato
Pure Green Tea power
Think of matcha gelato
sitting by the sea
Old Love
We met on a frozen shore.
Now,
we don’t see the sea anymore.
Haiku: Forbidden Feelings
They did not want us
to touch the trees and the leaves;
Forbidden feelings.
Killer Tea Cosy
Visions of killer tea cosies haunt your tea making experience. Every night since Thursday, you dreamt of animal, building, and flower tea cosies leaping off teapots, then chasing you down and snuffing out your life.
It’s been so long since you tasted tea; why it’s only been one hour. Desperate to feed your addiction, you shake too many leaves into the teapot.
“It’s all wrong!” you shout as your favourite tea cosy waves at you.
Haiku: Late
You wanted to wait
Standing within the grey clouds
You hate being late
Haiku: My Pet
my sweet darling pet
a fluffy cute butterball
meowing I’m spoilt
