out-migrant seagulls
outcry
no passage geese

summer fog --
a gull disappears
into the jetty

white mist
a sea gull
on a lamppost

gale wind
a laughing gull
on one foot

quiet sunrise
and the seagulls
all sing the same tune

above the garbage scow
a flying circus—
the piping of gulls

Simply Haiku, Summer 2006




bridge traffic stalled ...
a gull flies in place
against the wind

Amber (April 1995)


gull wings
lifting the light
from the sea

along the cliff
wing tips of gulls
at eye level

rounds
a sea gull circles
surf songs

A Dictionary of Haiku



a seagull blackens
toward the horizon -
ebb tide

Haiku Harvest




a solo gull
wings into blue --
shadows ripple

falling down
onto rush hour traffic
seagull feathers

down side streets -
seagulls turning the sky
in and out

golden scale clouds
gulls in and out of sunlight

sea gulls floating on
the muezzin's call

Laryalee san ,
wonderful haiku series on seagulls.
Do they continue like renku style or only keeping same theme?
The photos of the beginning and ending are also poetic.
I felt much interest in your site.

thank you, laryalee san, a lot.

Sakuo san, thank you for such kind comments! This is not a renku...just random haiku about seagulls!
(I haven't had time to announce this blog at many places.)

in the park

Keep the seagull haiku flying, except of course when they need to nibble! ;-)

Perhaps you remember, dear Laryalee:
http://mdn.mainichi.jp/features/haiku/archive/news/2008/09/20080831p2g00m0fe021000c.html
I wrote it in April in Istanbul, but it became "political" although I didn't intent to link it with Sept. 11. That happen's!

Rudi, thank you!
Your comment brought the blog to my attention...I'm afraid that I've neglected it, along with the poems by Alan and Martin. (I even forgot my password!)
But it's now updated, with all your fine haiku...thank you all!
;)

A distant seagull.
Hovering impossibly,
Dancing with my ghosts.
