verandah
the deaf man
listens to the rain

I keep searching
in my northern sky
after the Southern Cross

live oak
dripping moss
dripping moonlight

Hi, Steve, and great blog! I first posted this haiku on Summer Haiku 2009. It is inspired by Savannah and The Eagles' song "Seven Bridges Road."

Let Sleeping dogs Lie...

Content and Comatose

Shady spot

Under oak tree

Summer In North Carolina

Saturday morning sun, scrutinizing,

9:00 AM, no coffee please

Daddy?

It's too hot to go to the pool.

Welcome one and all! I should probably just say: Hey Y'all!! Welcome to Southern Haiku ! I decided to start the blog off with this haiku I wrote last summer for the Summer Haiku 2008, because it's actually when the idea first settled into my head about starting this endeavor. I'd like to thank the good folks at The Dead mule School of Southern Literature for helping me out with this, and I look forward to lots of great haiku from yall!
