    naughty aurora
    kissing a long tailed kite's skies
    a glowing shimmer

    AAAIII!

    Little beach turtles
    Rapidly moving their legs
    Sea awaits their eggs

    Love it

    will-o'-wisp

    through the cool marish
    a sultry will-o'-wisp drifts
    as ev'n tide draws near

    pebbles in flight

    beatified sun
    a delightful rain presumes
    pebbles take up flight

    lament

    wearisome night falls
    a large, marshy bog whimpers
    forsaken by sprites

    Sad, but...


    Morning

    Clad in sunrise
    Noisy city awakes
    Night ghosts take flight!

    city nights

    on deep reflection
    in shop windows they appear
    ghosts walking the streets

    Lol! Interesting image play. re:Enjoyed the link. Wanted to present Pluft, the little friendly Ghost a play by Maria Clara Machedo, but found no link in English.

    Ghosts

    Sudden movements
    White desolate sheets
    flutter in the wind...

    An English thumbnail sketch of Pluft: https://cinando.com/en/Film/pluft_184524/Detail (I found she also wrote The King's tailor )

    moistly ghostly

    supernatural
    a little moistly toad sits
    by the curlicues

    yarrow's demise

    dawn wakes the new day
    a wilting yarrow writhes
    cries with daffodil

    Enjoyed both Haikus. Thanks for the Pluft link, Tailor. Finally found the classical Pluft image I was looking for:
    https://br.pinterest.com/pin/4920183...4128/?mt=login

    Pluft

    Of human badness
    Dressed in gorgeous arrays
    I was much afraid.

    Me, such a small ghost
    The unfathomable world
    So full of anger!

    The br.pinterest link wouldn't work for some reason so I just took the br. prefix off and got a result that ultimately led me to https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=q3EuT9QMVoc which is a delightful production of a Pluft play. More than 20 minutes in a few influences to catch my eye/ear: Baha Men's "Who Let the Dogs Out", The Monkeys' "I'm a Believer", and Mancini's classic "Pink Panther"... quite cute. I couldn't follow all that was going on due to my ignorance of the language, but I got the main idea Found a few images of Pluft too ! Your double Haiku "Pluft" is wonderful !

    meandering thoughts

    an overcast sky
    a lightsome, lazy wind blows
    a promise of rain ?

    Cute poem!

    The squirrel

    A squinting squirrel
    posing with a tasty nut
    graces Central Park
