I am a man rich in years
but modest in accomplishment
for whom poetry offers
a last humble hope of redemption

Kindness has no colour
compassion has no hue
when you mix the world together
love is what shines through

evergreen the fir
nature's vibrant wand to break
winter's dreary spell

vole in a hurry
stark grey in the snow flurry
a kestrel hovers

how to mend the world
with hope, with love, not hatred
with small peaceful steps

in winter's cold grip
with each malty sip, I dream
of fields of barley

winter haunts the ground
those in golden towers turn
their face to the sun

early buds are popping to
the groove of the grove

a lone raindrop hangs
refracting the morning light
precious winter gem

just a single cloud
solitary gull drifting
lonely summer sky

the mountain stands proud
from its peak a puff of smoke
the valley trembles

a glowing tip, smoke drifting

if ICE would thaw then
maybe they would stop shooting
innocent people

#dailyhaikuprompt A belated additional one for the theme of thaw

carrot in an icy lump
echoes of laughter

a snow crusted field
in the scrub a vole scurries
a kestrel hovers

I can hardly bear to think
just grin and bear it

playing dare with the surf's edge
the ringed plovers dance

cold winter morning
lazy sun struggles to rise
in a clear blue sky

night came in softly
with a gentle maple sky
day leaves with a sigh

Autumn turns her face
winter slyly takes a step
a freezing wind blows
