Haiku: springtime in the office

Δημοσιεύθηκε: 29 Απριλίου 2015 - 23:55

The theme of springtime in the office elicited many beautiful poems. The winner is this one by David Dayson:

***

skyscrapers drift -

their moorings loosened

by spring clouds

***

Judge Jim Kacian, founder of the Haiku Foundation, applauded "the illusion of our gravity-bound world sprung loose by the float of clouds, not only in the sky but in the windows of those buildings that rear up among them".

His runner up is by Sarah Leavesley:

***

we start to slant blinds -

against the rush of files,

trickles of sunshine

***
