Haiku-Sonnet XXXV

war in love and hate
clouds stain moon and sun
- canker in sweetest bud

Haiku-Sonnet XXXIV

such a beauteous day
thy tears are pearl
rain on my storm-beaten face

Haiku-Sonnet XXXIII

glorious morning
but one hour mine
the clouds to ride

Haiku-Sonnet XXXII

churl death with dust
my bones shall cover
- these poor lines survive

Haiku-Sonnet XXXI

hung with trophies
all those friends
which I thought buried

Haiku-Sonnet XXX

sessions of sweet thought
remembrance of things past
an eye, unused to flow

Haiku-Sonnet XXIX

sweet love remembered
such wealth brings
lark at break of day arising

Haiku-Sonnet XXVIII

how far I toil
still farther off from thee
clouds do blot the heaven

XXVII

Haiku-Sonnet XXVII

a journey in my head
to sightless view
limbs with travel tired

XXVI

Haiku-Sonnet XXVI

wanting words to show it
show me the star
that guides my moving
