ISSA AND A FEW MOMENTS IN WALES
(Four haiku)
Issa sees the world
holding Issa in its hands.
Both begin to laugh.
—
Croeso! Croeso!
The sheep cry out.
Rainclouds gathering.
–
Hesitant at first,
And the birds falling silent,
Cool drops of rain.
–
Distant, morning train
Echoes off the empty fields.
Sheep waiting for rain.
