Kubla Khan's 'pleasure dome'
Do you think Kubla Khan's "pleasure dome" is a Yurt?
"In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
a stately pleasure-dome decree:"

Summer Haiku
We are now half way through the holiday. Here are a few haiku. They are not arranged in any order. Hope you like them.
in morning
light I’m reading
Siddhartha
...
evening light
lays upon the deer park
like a feather
...
water flows
over stones – recalls all
the fallen rain
...
water flows
over stones – reflecting
on the rain to come
...
at either end
of the still pond
shrill water
...
at the still pond
the echos of children
playing elsewhere
...
hidden in
a green labyrinth
children playing
...
after rain
air moves through the house
fresh and cool
