November 2015 Free format short poem


warmly lighted
evening window -
cooling street



November 2015 Free format short poem was EVENING WINDOW


(My text built by word cool.)




November Kigo


snowbird
heading sunwards -
melting wings




Bird? Snowbird is a human, traveling from freezing North Southwards.
My mother-in-law was a snowbird, she flew every autumn to Portugal, where she hired an apartemento. When sun again up and warmer in Finland she returned home...

Also everyone will remember Icarus.

wild geese
heading southwards
a starlit night



This was "hiding" inside my notebook. That was a sketch for Shikimontly Starlit night---

Text reminds me about something, perhaps there is a similar haiku somewhere?

That's why I did not sent that into Shikimontly...
