Here is a recent selection of 5-7-5 poems received from Kamome (nesting somewhere on the coast of Britain). The pen name means ‘Seagull’.
Getting rid of books –
Above the charity shop
The blue sky, boundless.
Meadow grass darker,
Buttercup faces brighter
In the setting sun.
Old priory moat –
The tree’s reflection erased
By rising bubbles.
Swallow in a church –
I open for it to leave:
In walks a beetle.
Seagull banks westward,
Its wings’ leading edge flashing
In the setting sun.
Apartment sorted –
After eight years, once again
The urge to move on.
……………………. Kamome
