February Haiku



The commuter train whistle---
a cry of anguish
for its silent passengers.




She seeks a lover               he searches for love
                              sadly                          
                  two different things.




Each winter
his beard returns
with more snow.




Her perfume
on my fingertips—
fragrance for a day dream.




Clouds deliver rain---
I run for shelter and warmth
small birds calmly bathe




By the wind's command
flowers bow in her presence 
as my lover leaves
