the cry of the cicada

A few of my very own.
For the uninitiated, take a look at www.toyomasu.com/haiku.

Clocks

Hands that choke
On a lonely monsoon
The thunderous ticking!

Telephones

Hear church bells toll
As lonely souls await dying
The call of Jesus

Trains

Clouds whizz by
The smell of wet earth
Diverging tracks!

Silence

The sound of music
in unspoken melody
Hush, Simon

Death

Rise dear father, see
how beautiful it is
Your name on the tombstone
