Quiet Interlude: a selection of haiku

by Katja Fox

​
first day at school— 
left at the gate
a teddy bear


flirtation— 
the snap dance
of a butterfly


end of summer— 
a single flip flop left
in the bicycle basket


knowing
where the blueberries grow— 
homecoming


new tattoo— 
​she’s got you
under her skin
