Haiku ~ Larry Rungren

 

solstice night  
the cold flash  
of a shooting star  
  In front of lawyer’s office:
  “Bankruptcy: $450
Payment plans available”
late autumn dusk  
the wild turkey's  
awkward waddle  
  May moon
  lighting
  the pine candles
almost nothing  
circling nothing...  
autumn gnats  


Lawrence Rungren grew up in Illinois and now lives in Massachusetts. His work has appeared in most major haiku journals as well as anthologies such as Haiku Moment and the Midwest Haiku Anthology. He is the Northeast Regional Coordinator for the Haiku Society of America and editor of the twice-yearly haiku journal, The Nor'Easter.
