Haiku: The Unseen



papery brown bulbs -
hidden deep in the centre
next season's flowers

shadows on grass
darkness shapes forms of
absence of sunlight

from my computer -
invisible signals link
to the worldwide web

    I only wish it was springtime here...

  10. Lovely!

    I am an expat living in Oz.
    Miss NZ, but I am from the Nth Is, but spent most of my married life in the Sth in Chch, which I now find I miss the most!
    I love that city.
    Loved looking at your familiar pics from the hills- made me homesick again!

  13. Lovely poems! I especially like the image of the papery brown bulbs enclosing next year's flowers. And I think that is the first haiku I have seen on the theme of the internet!
