Four Seasons in Haiku by Donal Mahoney

Starlets of Spring

After the Spring rain

two doves on a Dogwood branch

preening like starlets

Summer Snow

A row of lilacs

covered with a summer snow.

Ten white butterflies.

Pheasant Wings

Autumn and the leaves

are crisp in the swirling air.

Pheasant wings everywhere

Hope in Winter

Robin on the lawn.

Three hops and stops to listen.

Somewhere must be Spring.
